Abstract

A monitoring system based on sex pheromone traps was set to capture fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith), in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] surrounded by other crops and weeds. In total, 312 fall armyworms adults and 197 non-target insects from 17 families were captured. The importance of considering plant and insect diversity in a crop and its surroundings when implementing a strategy of capturing pest insects in sex pheromone traps was discussed.
