Abstract Lac is a natural resin of insect origin produced by lac insect, Kerria lacca (Kerr) (Homoptera: Tachardiidae) which finds application in many industrial sectors. Schleichera oleosa (kusum) is one of the major commercial lac hosts for raising kusmi strain of lac insect. Kusmi strain of lac is highly priced in commerce than rangeeni strain due to its superior quality. This host alone is contributing about 35–40 % of the total lac production at national level. In changing climatic scenario, emergences of new insect pest complex is being observed. Comprehensive and intensive host plant surveillance and field collections of insect pests associated with lac host S. oleosa carried out during the last 5 years reveal the occurrence of some new pests for the first time on this specific host. Egyptian cottony cushion scale, Icerya aegyptiaca (Douglas) (Hemiptera: Margarodidae); Scale insect, Aulacaspis sp. (Hemiptera: Diaspididae); Leaf hopper, Amrasca biguttulla (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae); Weevils, Amblyrrhinus poricollis Schoenherr (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and Peltotrachelus sp. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae); Sweet potato bug, Physomerus grossipes Fabricius (Hemiptera: Coreidae) and soapberry bug, Leptocoris augur (F.) (Hemiptera: Rhopalidae) which have not been recorded earlier in lac production system are hereby reported for the first time from India on S. oleosa. Interestingly some of the insect pests which were reported as minor and sporadic pests by earlier workers have been replaced by another species as the Curculionids attacking on commercial lac hosts. Some of the pests which were of sporadic nature are now becoming a pest of regular occurrence with more severity of damage. Considerable variations in their period of occurrence and activity have also been noticed.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
