Abstract
Marathwada region has
a great diversity of fruit crops and fruit-piercing moths are one of the major pests
of fruit crops. The present study describes the occurrence of fruit-piercing
moths from September 2022 to November 2023. four FPMS species were identified Eudocima
materna, Eudocima phalonia, Eudocima homaena, and Sphingomorpha cholera
they were collected and identified using reference identification keys. In the genus
Eudocima, E. Materna & E. Phalonia cause extensive damage to
fruits by piercing ripening fruits while E. Homaena has less. To
construct a phylogenetic tree, we investigate molecular taxonomy among FPMS
with COI molecular markers.
