Abstract
The current research work was undertaken on the succession of arthropods on black gram [Vigna mungo (L.)]. An experiment was conducted at Adhartal farm, Integrated Farming System unit, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur during Kharif season 2022-23. Arthropods harboured on the black gram crop 17 species constituted of 16 insects and 1 non insect were recorded, which belonged to 14 families and 6 orders. Out of 16 insects, 6 were natural enemies and 10 insect pests. The 10 species of insect pests were Bemisia tabaci, Monolepta signata, Empoasca kerri, Atractomorpha crenulata, Spodoptera litura, Spilarctia obliqua, Aulacophora foveicollis, Riptortus pedestris, Nezara viridula and Scutiphora pedicellata. Whereas 6 insect natural enemies were Coccinella septumpunctata, C. transversalis, Cheilomenes sexmaculata, Orthetrum sabrina, Ceriagrion coromandelianum and Paederus fuscipes were recorded.
