A eficiência da espécie Azadirachta indica como barreira natural ao ataque da Hypsipyla grandella sobre o mogno em diferentes arranjos e densidades de plantio foi, avaliada. O estudo foi realizado numa área de pastagem degradada em Vigia, PA. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos ao acaso em esquema de parcelas subdivididas no tempo, com cinco repetições, sendo as formas de cultivo do mogno as parcelas, e as épocas de avaliação (meses) as subparcelas. A barreira natural formada pelo nim não evitou o ataque de H. grandella sobre o mogno, mas retardou e minimizou o ataque em plantios mistos. Para o maior controle do ataque de H. grandella, o mogno não deve ser plantado simultaneamente com o nim, mas um ano após o plantio do nim, quando este apresenta mais de três metros de altura, formando uma barreira natural mais eficaz ao ataque desta praga.

Resumo. Objetivou-se com o presente estudo registrar a ocorrência de Hypsipyla grandella (Zeller) atacando sementes de andiroba (Carapa guianensis Aubl) em floresta nativa, na região sul do estado de Roraima, Brasil. Dentre as espécies de interesse econômico na Amazônia, se destaca Carapa guianensis, por ser nativa e de múltiplo uso, sendo a madeira e o óleo extraído de suas sementes, seus produtos mais importantes. As plantas da família Meliaceae como C. guianensis e Swietenia macrophylla (King) têm como uma das principais pragas florestais a H. grandella. A coleta das sementes de C. guianensis foi realizada nos meses de fevereiro e março de 2012, tendo-se selecionado as que estavam sobre o solo embaixo da copa das arvores, e danificadas (presença de furos), ou com vestígios de ataque (exsudação de goma sobre as sementes) por insetos. Em seguida as mesmas foram levadas ao Laboratório de Entomologia Agrícola da Universidade Federal de Roraima - UFRR, onde foram separadas em lotes de 50 sementes, por município totalizando 200 sementes. Constatou-se nas sementes a presença de 450 larvas de Hypsipyla, as quais originaram 392 (87%) adultos de Hypsipyla ferrealis (Hampson) e 58 (13%) de H. grandella. Este é o primeiro registro de ocorrência de H. grandella danificando sementes de C. guianensis em Roraima.Occurrence of Hypsipyla grandella Zeller (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae) in the South of Roraima StateAbstract. The study aimed to record the occurrence of Hypsipyla grandella (Zeller) attacking andiroba (Carapa guianensis Aubl) seed, in native forest of Roraima southern region, Brazil. Among the species of economic interest in the Amazon, stands out C. guianensis, by to be native and of multiple uses, having wood and the oil extracted from seeds as the most important products. The Meliaceae family plants, as C. guianensis and Swietenia macrophylla (King), have as a major forest pest, H. grandella. The C. guianensis seeds samplings were held in February and March 2012. The seeds were selected on the ground beneath the canopy of trees, and those which had damage (holes presence), or with insects attack trace (exudation). The seeds were brought to the Agricultural Entomology laboratory, of Federal University of Roraima - UFRR, which were separated into batches of 50 seeds per municipality, totaling 200 seeds. It was observed the presence of 450 Hypsipyla larvae in the seeds, which yielded 392 (87%) adults of Hypsipyla ferrealis (Hampson) and 58 (13%) of H. grandella. This is the first occurrence of H. grandella damaging andiroba seeds in Roraima.

The pattern of growth increment zones, the cambial growth dynamics and the structural variation in wood formation of Swietenia macrophylla King, Carapa guianensis Aubl., and Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae) were investigated in order to understand the relationship of site conditions and sustainable growth in Central Amazonian plantations. Trees were available from 8-, 17-, 23-, and 57-year-old plantations, and from primary forests in Manaus (Amazônia), Santarem (Pará), and Aripuanã (Mato Grosso). The wood anatomical structure and the annual increments of 61 Swietenia, 94 Carapa, and 89 Cedrela trees were studied for different tree heights. The curves of annual increments were cross-dated and tested for synchronisation. The cambial growth dynamics of up to 52 trees per species were dated by means of dendrometer measurements, monthly labelling by pinmarkers, and extracted cambium samples investigated using a microscope. The intraannual course of the growth and structural variation was compared with the water supply of the soil and insect attacks (Hypsipyla grandella (Zeller) Lep.).In Swietenia and Carapa parenchyma and vessel bands as well as bands of resin canals were observed. Within the xylem of Cedrela, alternating bands of fibres and vessels surrounded by paratracheal parenchyma were found; bands of resin canals were only occasional. In the juvenile wood of Swietenia and Carapa no synchronization of the increment curves was possible, whereas the increment curves obtained in the juvenile wood of Cedrela showed parallel run in growth. The increment curves obtained in adult wood of Swietenia and Cedrela indicate an annual formation of increment zones, whereas the number of increment zones in the xylem of Carapa was approximately 50% higher than the tree age (years) indicating that the growth increments of Carapa also were not annual during the adult phase of growth.The study of the intraannual growth dynamics of the trees showed that the formation of parenchyma bands in Swietenia is induced by dry periods before a cambial dormancy. The formation of parenchyma bands of Carapa was induced by extremely dry and extremely wet periods before a cambial dormancy, whereas fibre bands in Cedrela were induced by dry periods before a cambial dormancy and the formation of vessel bands embedded in paratracheal parenchyma was induced by wet periods after a cambial dormancy. In addition, insect attack (Hypsipyla grandella) induced locally restricted formation of parenchyma bands and bands of resin canals in Swietenia, Carapa and Cedrela.

El taladrador de las meliáceas, Hypsipyla grandella (Zeller), taladra los brotes de árboles en la familia de las caobas (Meliaceae), especialmente las caobas (Swietenia spp.) y los cedros (Cedrela spp.). Es una plaga económica importante, y ha sido el objetivo de investigaciones en muchos países tropicales. Es la única especie de Hypsipyla en Florida, donde es una plaga de caoba antillana (Swietenia mahagoni Jacquin), un árbol nativo que es frecuentemente plantado como un árbol de sombra.  Este documento, EENY337, es uno de una serie de publicaciones del Departamento de Entomología y Nematología, UF/IFAS Extensión.
