Trogoderma fasciolata Fairmaire, 1897, comb. rev. is redescribed, illustrated and restored to the genus Trogoderma Dejean, 1821 from Aethriostoma Motschulsky, 1858. A key to the known Trogoderma species from Madagascar is presented.

The occurrence of entomopathogenic fungi isolated from stored grain insect pests sampled from various geographical regions of Punjab, Pakistan, was investigated. In total, 25,720 insects from six different species were evaluated, and 195 isolates from 24 different fungal species were recovered. These included the Ascomycetes Beauveria bassiana sensu lato (Balsamo) Vuillemin (Hypocreales: Clavic...

Abstract Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts, 1898 (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is one of the most notorious pests stored grains. This study was aimed to evaluate efficacy ozone against 2nd and 5th instars adults T. in wheat kernels under laboratory conditions. Four concentrations 300, 600, 900, 1200 parts per million by volume (ppmv) were used. The results revealed that LC 50 values 249.76...

Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Evert (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is the most important stored pest and was first discovered in Jakarta grain storages 1972. Since then, quarantine procedures have been massively carried out to prevent khapra beetles spread Indonesia. In 2009, Indonesia has declared as free area from beetle. However, still import non-Khapra beetle countries supervision must be ...

Stored-product commodities are attacked by numerous insect species. The adulticidal effects of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) on grains remain uninvestigated. Thus, in the current study, seven doses EPNs Heterorhabditis bacteriophora Poinar (Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae), Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser) Steinernematidae), and feltiae (Filipjev) Steinernematidae) were inoculated wheat kerne...
