Anomala denuda adults are not usually considered major crop pests. However, an infestation of up to 46,508 individuals was observed in a maize field in Songon, causing a yield reduction of approximately 32%. In response to the extensive damage caused by this beetle to maize crops, the objective of this study was to test the efficacy of an aqueous extract of Ricinus communis, a known pesticidal plant, in controlling A. denuda and increasing maize production. The experiment was conducted on an exp

Blood-sucking midges from the Simuliidae family are small dipteran insects belonging to the Nematocera suborder. They inhabit various landscapes and geographical zones throughout the Russian Federation and play an important role in medical and epidemiological contexts as hematophagous insects and disease vectors affecting both humans and animals. The species composition and population size of midges in aquatic habitats are influenced by hydrological conditions and environmental factors that infl

Cotton plays an important role in Africa's agricultural economy, yet its profitability is often challenged by high production costs. This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of chemical insecticides—Chlorpyrifos® 480 EC, Karate® EC, and Bandit® 350 SC—against biopesticides—Eco-Bb®, Bolldex®, Delfin®, Nomu-Protec®, and Bb endophyte—in managing cotton pests. Among the tested pesticides, Delfin® incurred the highest expense at US$602, followed by Bolldex® at US$495.74, while Chlorpyrifos® wa

The limitations of conventional taxonomy have left a large number of arthropods, especially insects, unidentified. Recently, DNA barcoding—an innovative approach that relies on variations within a short DNA sequence—has emerged as a powerful alternative for species identification. This review article aims to evaluate the efficacy of DNA barcoding in modern insect taxonomy and analyze its role in addressing existing taxonomic challenges. This method is recognized for its speed, accuracy, reliabil
