Identification of Lepidopteran rice pests based on genitalia structure /

The identification of Lepidoptera is normally difficult especially when it comes to moth. This is due to the high resemblance in morphological structure of the wings. Most of the time damages caused by sampling methods make the identification seem impossible.The uniqueness of the genitalia within sp...

520 |a The identification of Lepidoptera is normally difficult especially when it comes to moth. This is due to the high resemblance in morphological structure of the wings. Most of the time damages caused by sampling methods make the identification seem impossible.The uniqueness of the genitalia within species leads to the use in morphological study of lepidopteran species. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the lepidopteran rice pests based on genitalia structure and construct key of lepidopteran genitalia.Samplings of adult moth were conducted in paddy field in Kg. Bagan Serai, Perak from 16th May 2013 to 6th July 2013.The species of lepidopteran rice pests were sampled using three malaise trap randomly set up in one sites of paddy fields for two weeks.The entire samples that caught were brought to the Entomology Laboratory for dissection and slide preparation in Department of Plant Protection at Universiti Putra Malaysia. Dissection and slide preparation of male and female genitalia is adopted and modified from Gilligan et al., (2011). The identification is through observation on genitalia of lepidopteran species. The new key is constructed precisely among seven species from four families which is Pelopidas mathias, Mocis frugalis, Mhytimna venalba, Mhytimna unipucta, Cnaphalocrisis medinalis, Melanitis idea and Spodoptera mauritia based on the prominence characteristic such as uncus, valva, tegument, aedegus, saccus, antrum, ductus bursae and corpus bursae.
