Abstract

The obscure mealybug, Pseudococcus viburni Signoret (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is a polyphagous cosmopolitan pest, damaging vineyards and fruit orchards. The species has long been quarantined in Korea and has never been recorded in the wild in Korea. In this study, to confirm the absence of P. viburni in Korea, we have searched for the species from the orchards. 533 sites of persimmon orchards, 144 sites of apple and other orchards, and 281 sites of nurseries and greenhouses were surveyed for the last three years (2015-2017). As a result, P. viburni occurs neither in the wild nor in nurseries in Korea.

가루깍지벌레류인 Pseudococcus viburni Signoret (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae)는 포도원과 다른 과실 과원에도 피해를 주는 국제적 해충이다. 이 종은 한국에서 오랫동안 격리되어 왔으며 야외에서의 발생기록은 전혀 없다. 본 연구에서는 한국에서의 P. viburni 부재를 확인하기 위해 전국적으로 감 과수원 533사이트, 사과 및 기타 과수원 144사이트, 묘목원 및 온실 281사이트를 지난 3년간(2015-2017) 조사하였다. 그 결과 P. viburni는 한국의 야외에서나 묘목원 등에서 발생되지 않는 것으로 확인되어 이를 보고한다.
