This book was released on 1994 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Procedures for monitoring larval populations of the Douglas-fir tussock moth and the western spruce budworm are recommended based on many years experience in sampling these species in eastern Oregon and Washington. It is shown that statistically reliable estimates of larval density can be made for a population by sampling host trees in a series of permanent plots in a geographical monitoring unit. The most practical method is to estimate simultaneously densities on a plot of both insect species by the nondestructive sampling of foliage on lower crown branches of host trees. This can be done either by counting all larvae on sample branches or by estimating the frequency of occurrence of a selected threshold number of larvae in samples. Statistics are given on the expected within- and between-plot variances and the number of sample plots needed in different sized monitoring units. In large monitoring units, plot densities of tussock moth and budworm larvae usually are not normally distributed, but they can be normalized by logarithmic transformation to predict the probability of subpopulations of any given density occurring somewhere in the unit. It is urged that sampling methods be consistent and that monitoring be done annually to accumulate continuous databases that reflect the behavior of defoliator populations over a long period.

Book Sequential Sampling in Surveys of Overwintering Larvae of Spruce Budworm  Choristoneura Fumiferana  Lepidoptera  Tortricidae

Download or read book Sequential Sampling in Surveys of Overwintering Larvae of Spruce Budworm Choristoneura Fumiferana Lepidoptera Tortricidae written by John B. Dimond and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sequential sampling system for classifying infestation levels of overwintering larvae of the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana, (Clemens), is described. Sequential tables for critical densities of larvae on balsam fir and red spruce are presented for 70%, 80%, and 90%, confidence intervals. The system is based on data collected in Maine and uses a maximum of 6 branches, 3 from fir and 3 from spruce. Simulations illustrating error rates and effort saved using the system are discussed.
