Sažetak
The area of Herzegovina offers ideal conditions for growing different fruit crops. Even though this area is famous for peach, nectarine, cherry and apricot, almond plantations have been established recently as well. Peach twig borer moth has occurred in these almond plantations as important shoot pest, which hasn’t been recorded before in the area of Herzegovina. Although this pest is reported to be appearing in peach and nectarine orchards exclusively, it has also attacked shoots in almond orchards in Herzegovina. On the other hand, during the pest monitoring and obligatory sanitary nursery examination this pest has been reported on the peach and nectarine shoots. The official threshold is 2 % and we have never found more than 2 % in the nursery. However, the peach twig borer moth hasn’t been reported as shoot pest of the almond seedlings in the nursery, but was found in the almond shoots in the production orchard in the area of Gnojnice. We are going to present a young almond orchard (3 or 4 years old), with five different varieties and total number of one hundred and ten trees. The examination of trees and almond sprouts on the presence of peach moth larvae was made four times in 2010; 110 trees and 200 sprouts were observed during each examination.
In our paper we are going to present the basic morphological variety characteristics, pest biology, localities of the pest monitoring, intensity of pest occurring and damage of almond shoots in 2010 as well.
