| Abstract | ||||
| The fig leaf roller, Choreutis nemorana (Hbn.) was detected for the first time in Egypt at the north west coastal region (Matrouh Governorate) on fig trees, Ficus carica L. in July 1991. Larvae were collected from various fig orchards and reared in the laboratory on fig leaves till adult emergence. Specimens of moths were not available in the collection of the Plant Protection Research Institute. Specimens were sent to the British Museum and were identified by Mr. K. Tuck on the 23rd of July 1992 as Choreutis nemorana (Hbn.). | ||||
