The work on the 'Studies of radiosensitivity' in Korea has been initiated since 1959 by the author at various institutions in home and foreign countries, and more than 20000 of plant materials in 73 varieties and 41 kinds are treated under varied conditions for the studies of radiosensitivity in plants. However, a study of the susceptibility to radiation in insect pests as well as their biological effects has not been previously reported in this country. During the year of 1964 and 1965, near 50000 of insects at the stages of adult, egg, larva and pupa in 14 different kinds are irradiated under acute X and gamma rays to investigate the behavior of growth and lethality after irradiation, and thrir general tolerances to radiations are compared by the kind of insects, stage of growth, radiation sources and exposured dosages. Through the experiments, it is shown that the lethality in most of insects are high as several kilo roentgens above and no significant effects on pupation. emergence, and oviposition in the treated generation at the dose of 3 Kr. below, but in the following generation , the rice stem borer for instance, no oviposition or decreased laying is observed from the dosages at 3 Kr. to 1 Kr., and the hatching was possible from 1.5 Kr. below of irradiated larvae although laying and hatching are seemed in normal. In general, the lethal dose $50\%$ of tested infect materials at the larval stage can he classified some what 60-80 Kr. for Pine caterpillar, Fall webworm, Camphor silk moth and their relatives, at 40-60 Kr. for Gypsy moth, Monley prominent and some relatives and at 20-30 Kr. for House fly, Rice weevil, Pine sawfly etc. Plant parasitic nematodes such as Hirschmannia and Paratylenchus shown very high resistance to radiation and the LD-50 is observed from 100 Kr. or above. A concept to evaluate the radiosensitivity in insects by taxological family line as a practical measure is not answerable yet, but it ran he solved within the near future through the continuing experiments.

본 논문은 경기도광릉시험목에서 잣나무를 식해하는 한국미기록종 잣나무넓적잎벌(신칭)을 재료로 하여 1958-1961 년에 연구한 것을 기록한 것이다. (1) 본충은 막혈목 광요아목 편엽봉과의 Acantholyda nemoralis에 해당하는 것으로서, 이것의 학명으로는 R.B.Benson T의 설에 따라 Acantholyda posticalis posticalis MATSU.MURA를 채용하기로하였다. (2) 분포지로는 개지의 일본, 몽고, 시베리아 외에 한국을 추가한다. 구라파에서는 별개의 아종이 있다. 본종의 서식지로는 현재까지 경기도의 광fmd, 가평, 양주와 강원도의 충성군이 알려져있을 뿐이다. (3) 성충의 체색은 대체로 흑색이나, 두부와 훙부에 황색의 무늬가 많\ulcorner. 촉색은 황갈색 사상으로 유충은 웅충은 33절, 자충은 32절로 되었다. (4) 란은 QH트형으로 그 양단이 상외방으로 돌출, 산란직후의 색은 광택있는 담황갈색을 정하나 3일이 경과하면 담자황록색으로 변한다. 길이 약 3 mm , 폭 약 0.7mm이다. (5) 부화유충의 채색은 대적황색이나 , 머리와 흉곽은 흑색이다. 머리가 크고 몸통은 가늘다. 체장 약 3.5mm, 체폭 약 0.7mm. 성열유충의 체색은 담황갈색이나, 배선 및 기문상선은 선명한 적색이다. 3상의 흉곽과 한쌍의 미각이 있고, 망막은 없다. 두부는 키틴질화하였고, 갈색이며, 촉색은 7 절로되어 있고 대사가 발달하였다. 체장 약 27.4mm, 체폭 약 4.5mm , 전용은 적색의 배선 및 기문상선이 없고, 전신이 등황색이며, 촉색의 배측에 칠흑색의 커다란 복안을 가지고있는 점등이 성열유충과 다른 점이다. 암컷이 될 것은 크고 (체장 약 20-26mm), 수컷이 될 것은 작다(체장 약 3-17mm). (6) 용은 나용으로 용화직전의 것은 단지 복안과 단안만이 흑색을 정하고 , 타부분은 전부황색이지만 시간이 경과함에 따라 색이 변한다. 체장 약 17mm, 체폭 약 5mm.

Striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata (SFB) and turnip sawfly, Athalia rosae ruficornis (TSF) are two economically important sporadic pests in radish fields on Jeju island. The response of adult SFB and TSF to a mixture of aggregation pheromone, (+)-(6R,7S)-himachala-9,11-diene and host plant volatile, allyl isothiocyanate (HAI), as well as to yellow and blue sticky traps was examined in radish fields. Adult SFB was more attracted to the sticky trap with HAI, regardless of the color of the sticky trap; however, adult TSF was more attracted on the yellow sticky trap than blue, and no effect of HAI was observed. The adult SFB and TSF can be effectively monitored using yellow sticky traps placed 10 cm above the plant canopy. SFB and TSF had 3 and 5 peak times in a year, respectively. The first peak occurred in the middle of March for SFB and mid-late of April for TSF. We expect that the results of the present study can facilitate minimizing the damage caused by the two important pests in commercial radish fields.
