[email protected] Résumé. Les essais alimentaires en laboratoire confirment que les feuilles du tilleul à petites feuilles traitées avec l’imidacloprid étaient moins dévorées par les scolytes japonais que celle d’arbres non traités. Les études sur le terrain ont révélé que les applications sur le sol d’imidacloprid ont significativement diminué le degré de sévérité de la défoliation causée par les scolytes japonais dans l’annéeoù l’insecticide a été appliqué ainsi que l’année subséquente. Ces découvertes indiquent que l’imidacloprid constitue un outil utile pour les arboriculteurs afin de réduire la défoliation par cet impor- tant parasite. Zusammenfassung. Laborfütterungsversuche bestätigten, dass Blätter der Winterlinde, die mit Imidacloprid behandelt waren, we- niger von Japan-Käfern gefressen wurden als die von unbehandelten Bäumen. Feldstudien ergaben, dass Bodenapplikationen mit Imida- cloprid die Schwere der Entlaubung durch den Japan-Käfer in dem Jahr der Applikation und in den Folgejahren reduziert. Diese Ergeb- nisse zeigen, dass Imidacloprid ein nützliches Werkzeug für Ar- boristen bei der Bekämpfung dieses bedeutenden Schädlings ist. Resumen. Ensayos de laboratorio confirmaron que las hojas de tilo tratadas con imidacloprid fueron consumidas mucho menos por escarabajos japoneses que las de árboles no tratados. Estudios de campo revelaron que las aplicaciones al suelo de imidacloprid redu- jeron significativamente el grado de defoliación severa causada por lo escarabajos en el año en que el insecticida fue aplicado, y también en el siguiente. Estos hallazgos indican que imidacloprid es una herramienta útil para los arboristas para reducir la defoliación por esta importante plaga. ©2007 International Society of Arboriculture
