Abstract:The trapping efficacy of three kinds of sex pheromone traps on Tuta absoluta in greenhouse was evaluated.The results showed that the trapped moth number of the smaller blue water pan trap with diame-ter at 26 cm was 82.8%of that of the blue sticky card trap,and the difference between them was not signifi-cant.The trapped moth number of the larger red water pan trap with diameter at 30 cm was 1.486 times of that of the blue sticky card trap,and the difference between them was significant(P<0.05).Considering cost and convenience of use,the larger red water pan trap should be recommended as the current preferred sex phero-mone trap for tomato leaf miner trapping.
