Sampling Bean Leaf Beetles on Soybean

  • Chapter
Sampling Methods in Soybean Entomology

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Experimental Entomology ((SSEXP))

Abstract

The genus Cerotoma Chevrolat (Coleoptera:Chrysomelidae) contains ca. 15 species (Wilcox 1972), most (if not all) of which are associated with wild and cultivated leguminous hosts. C. trifurcata (Forster) is by far the best known of the species, and much of this chapter is based on information gathered on this species. Bean leaf beetle (Popenoe 1889) is the official common name of C. trifurcata, but it has also been used to designate other species of Cerotoma (Nichols et al. 1974). Although most information on C. trifurcata is probably also applicable to other species of the genus, the reader should be very cautious in making such assumptions. The efficiency of various sampling procedures may differ rather markedly among species because of differences in the species behavior. For example, the alarm response of C. trifurcata is usually a drop to the ground (partial thanatosis), which makes the ground cloth a good sampling method for this species. C. ruficornis (Olivier), on the other hand, responds to alarm with a quick escape flight; in this case the ground cloth is rather inefficient. Too little is known about other species of Cerotoma to permit a detailed comparative analysis.
