Abstract: The spatial distribution patterns of overwintering larvae of Apriona germari larva in Morus alba were studied using six spatial distribution pattern analysis methods(m*/ m, C, k, Iδ, I, CA)and two regression equations(Taylor power and m*-m), the assembling reasons were analyzed with average aggression size λ. The results indicated that spatial distribution patterns of Apriona germari larva population was in uniform distribution. The optimal sampling equation(N=t2(1.0097m-0.1971)/D2) and sequential sampling equation(T(n)=0.2n±0.4405) were established. This paper may provide the basis for prediction and control of Apriona germari.

Key words: Apriona germari Hope, overwintering larvae, spatial distribution pattern, sampling techniques
