Abstract

The pest complex associated with intensively managed teak plantations was studied in the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh in India. Pests encountered in teak plantations in forest areas such as Hyblaea puera Eutectona machaeralis and Sahyadrassus malabaricus were found in intensively managed teak plantations. Less known pests such as Zeuzera coffeae Dihammus sp. Aleurodicus sp. and mealy bugs can be potential problems. The bollworm Helicoverpa armigera a notorious pest in agriculture was noted for the first time attacking terminal shoots of young teak.
