Abstract

Field surveys for the Bemisia tabaci complex were conducted from 2009 to 2013 in Korea, and the results were compared with published data of the B. tabaci complex. Three species, MED, MEAM1, and JpL, were collected from several provinces. The MED was mainly collected in greenhouses, displacing the earlier invasive species, MEAM1, and the JpL species was collected in the field. JpL is newly confirmed as a unique species of B. tabaci species complex in Korea and Japan.

 

Se realizó un sondeo de campo sobre el complejo de Bemisia tabaci desde el 2009 hasta el 2013 en Corea, y se comparó los resultados con los datos publicados del complejo de B. tabaci. Se recolectaron tres especies, MED, MEAM1 y JPL de varias provincias. Se recogió la MED principalmente en invernaderos, la MEAM1 que replazo la que se invadió anteriormente y la especie JPL que fue recolectada en el campo. La JPL es recién confirmada como una especie única del complejo de B. tabaci en Corea y Japón.
