Abstract:
A study of the environment of the Angoumois grain moth, Silolroga cerealella Oliv., in a selected area (the vicinity of Philadelphia) during the past 28 years indicates that the principal factor influencing the occurrence of moth outbreaks there is the temperature from June to October. Time of harvest and winter temperatures also appear to be of importance.Document Type: Research article
