Latin Name | Chilo partellus |
Common Name | Spotted stalk borer |
Biology | A stem borer in Crambidae. Multivoltine, with up to 5 generations/year in tropical regions. Larvae bore into stems of host plants; pupation occurs within stem tunnels. Adults are nocturnal. |
Damage | sorghum, and sugarcane. May vector plant pathogens. |
Distribution Regions | Native to Asia; widely distributed in sub-Saharan Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and parts of the Middle East. |
Monitoring | Pheromone traps targeting males; scouting for stem damage, frass, and larval entry holes. |
Recommended Traps | Funnel traps or delta traps with C. partellus sex |
