Abstract:

The work has determined the species composition as well as the number of thrips gathered on winter and spring wheat in milk-waxy ripe stage in six soil-climatic regions of Poland. The occurrence of 15 thrips species has been noted, nine of which were associated with cereals. They occurred most amply in south-western Poland. In all regions under study the following species were noted to exist in greater numbers: Frankliniella tenuicornis (Uzel), Limothrips denticornis Haliday and Haplothrips aculeatus (Fabricius). Limothrips cerealium Haliday was dominant in all western regions of Poland whereas Haplothrips tritici (Kurdjumov) in the south-eastern region.
