Choice tests were conducted under laboratory condition to standardize food bait using larvae of S. litura revealed the combination of rice bran + jaggery 20% + yeast 0.1% and rice bran + molasses 10% have proved best in attracting more larval populations. Efficacy of different combinations of poison baits was evaluated under field condition for the management of cutworm population in spinach. The jaggery based bait mixed with spinosad (rice bran + jaggery 20% + yeast 0.1% + spinosad @ 2.5ml/kg) proved best next to spinosad spray in reducing the larval population and leaf damage and thereby increased leaf yield over other baits and untreated control. Hence, jaggery based bait with spinosad may be recommended for management of cutworms in vegetable ecosystem.Keywords
Bait, Spodoptera litura, Spinach, Spinosad, Malathion.

Studies related to species diversity and seasonal incidence of fruit flies in drumstick ecosystems were conducted at University of Horticultural Sciences (UHS), Udyanagiri, Bagalkot, India during Rabi 2015-16 and Kharif 2016. During Rabi 2015 Shannon Wiener index (H’) of diversity of the fruit fly population was maximum (H’=0.64) during 6th SMW of (February) 2016. The Pielou’s evenness (J’) value was maximum during 6th SMW of (February) 2016 and 52nd SMW of (December) 2015 (0.92 and 0.79, respectively). The maximum Simpson diversity index value (0.66) was recorded during 6th SMW of (February) 2016. During 2016 maximum H value (H’=0.61) was recorded during 38th followed by 36th SMW of (September) 2016 (0.79). The Pielou’s evenness (J’) ranged from 0.33 to 0.88. Maximum (J’) value was recorded during 38th SMW of (September) 2016 (0.88) and 36th SMW of (September) 2016 (0.79).Keywords
