Abstract
Larvae and adults of Phthorimaea operculella (Zeller) in potato foliage were effectively controlled by commercial applications of azinphosmethyl and a combination of methomyl and methamidophos, but eggs and pupae were not significantly affected. Azinphosmethyl, methomyl, and methamidophos provided adequate control of foliar larval populations, but larval parasitism was markedly reduced in treated plots. Predator populations and predation of potato tuberworm eggs and pupae were high in untreated potato plantings and were greatly reduced by scheduled applications of azinphosmethyl. After azinphosmethyl applications, adult populations of potato tuberworm resurged rapidly, but more time was necessary for larval resurgence.
