ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Serrodes partita (Fabr.) (Serrodes inara (Cram.), erroneously Serrodes inara Dist.) is one of a complex of so-called fruit-piercing or fruit-sucking moths of the subfamilies Catocalinae and Noctuinae of the Noctuidae, - partita belonging to the latter subfamily. These fruit-piercing or fruit-sucking moths attack many stone, deciduous and tropical fruit by inserting their proboscides into the flesh and suck­ ing out the juices. They are an important pest in some parts of the world such as Africa, Australia and India, and they have also been re­ ported from Ceylon, Fiji, Indonesia, Indo-China, Japan, Malaya, Samoa and South America (Hargreaves, 1936). 2012-08-27T12:26:15Z 2012-08-27T12:26:15Z 1969 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/67769 en_ZA Stellenbosch University 195 pages : illustrations. application/pdf Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University
