Item Effects of acaricides used in coffee crops on the eggs and subsequent stages of green lacewing(Editora UFLA, 2010-01) Vilela, Michelle; Carvalho, Geraldo Andrade; Carvalho, César Freire; Boas, Matheus Alvarenga VilasOne of the most common predatory species in coffee agrosystems is Chrysoperla externa (Hagen, 1861) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae). Its maintenance, however, depends on the application of non-toxic pesticides. Thus, bioassays were carried out in laboratory conditions to evaluate the selectivity of the acaricides spirodiclofen (Envidor – 0.12 g a.i.L -1 ), fenpropathrin (Meothrin 300 – 0.15 and 0.30 g a.i.L -1 ), sulphur (Thiovit Sandoz – 4.0 and 8.0 g a.i.L -1 and, abamectin (Vertimec 18 CE – 0.0067 and 0.0225 g a.i.L -1 ) on this predator’s eggs. The C. externa eggs were directly sprayed using a Potter’s tower. The eggs were then placed in glass tubes and kept in a climatic chamber at 25±2 o C, RH of 70±10% and 12h of photophase. The pesticides were classified according to the recommendations of the IOBC. Fenpropathrin (0.30 g a.i.L -1 ) was harmful and fenpropathrin (0.15 g a.i.L -1 ) was moderately harmful to the green lacewing. The products spirodiclophen, sulphur and abamectin were moderately harmful to the predator. New assays in greenhouse and field conditions should be carried out to verify the toxicity of these compounds.Item Selectivity of agrochemicals on predatory mites (Phytoseiidae) found on coffee plants(Editora UFLA, 2006-04) Reis, Paulo Rebelles; Franco, Renato André; Pedro Neto, Marçal; Teodoro, Adenir VieiraAn evaluation on the effect of agrochemicals to the predatory mites Euseius alatus DeLeon, 1966, Euseius citrifolius Denmark & Muma, 1970, Amblyseius herbicolus (Chant, 1959) and Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma, 1972 (Phytoseiidae) is presented in this paper. These predators are frequently associated to Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes, 1939) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae), vector of the coffee ring spot virus, and to Oligonychus ilicis (McGregor, 1917) (Acari: Tetranychidae) on coffee plants. The residual contact bioassay of spraying in glass surface was used. Twenty-six currently used agrochemicals or those with potential to be used in Brazilian coffee production were tested. Spraying was conducted using a Potter tower at a pressure of 15 lb/pol2; each cover glass received 1.68 ± 0.36 mg/cm2 of the tested products. Adverse effect on the predatory mites was calculated taking into account the mortality of females and the effect in the reproduction during eight days. Tested products were ranked in four toxicity classes according IOBC/WPRS, by the total effect caused to the mite. Five products (fenbutatin oxide, hexythiazox, spiromesifen, spirodiclofen and emamectin) were innocuous or slightly noxious to all predators, whereas three products (abamectin, sulfur and endosulfan) were innocuous or slightly noxious to three of the four predators.
