Larvae and adults were identified as Phyllophaga menetriesi, P. obsoleta, P. zunilensis, P. elenans, P. vicina and P. valeriana; Cyclocephala lunulata, C. castaniella and C. sanguinicollis; and Anomala cupricollis and A. granulipyga. The distribution in agricultural crops was: P. menetriesi and P. vicina on coffee (Coffea arabica); P. menetriesi on asparagus (Asparagus officinalis); P. menetriesi, P. obsoleta, P. zunilensis, Anomala spp., Cyclocephala spp., Cyclocephala lunulata on strawberry (Fragaria anannas); P. zunilensis, P. elenans on sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum); P. valeriana on potatoe (Solanum tuberosum) and tomatoe (Lycopersicon esculentum); P. obsoleta, C. castaniella, C. sanxuinicollis and A. granulipyga on kikuyu grass (Penissetum clandestinum) P. menetriesi larvae were found in Andisols grand groups: Melanudands, Hapludands and Haplustands. P. obsoleta in the Melanudands grand group. P. vicina in Hapludands. P. valeriana in the Inceptisols grand group of Ustropepts. Anomala spp. in Hapludands and Cyclocephala spp. in Hapludands and Melanudands. |
