The influence of parasites on harmful insects of the deciduous forests of the north of Argeş county

Abstract

This article presents a study on the parasites of harmful insects of the acacia and oak forests from the superior basin of Doamnei river. Between 2008-2011, we identified in these forests the following species of harmful insects which have significantly multiplied: Parectopa robiniella, Phylonorycter robiniella, Andricus quercuscalicis. The dynamics of pests populations was influenced both by abiotic factors and by the action of parasites.
