SUMMARY:

The great biological diversity of trees in cities contributes ecologically and
aesthetically to make the urban environment more pleasant, performing
a significant role in improving the living conditions of the city. At the
However, the quality of the tree cluster can be negatively affected by
insect attack at various stages of tree development. One
of the main pests that attack the mungba and paineiras is the Euchroma
gigantea L. 1758 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), known as metallic beetle
or South American giant buprestid, due to its size, is one of the
arthropods that attack the bombshells. In E. gigantae attacks there is no
information on the regulation of insects through the action of agents of
biological control. To date, there are none in the literature or in the
Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA) information on
a potentially effective insecticide for the management of E. gigantea in
urban areas. Currently, only cultural control has been effective for
reduction of insect pest populations, which consists of manual collection of
adult insects and there are no reports on the action of natural control agents
regulating the population of this pest. Given this, the work aims to
identify volatile compounds present in males and females of Euchroma
gigantea (Linnaeus, 1758) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) collected from trees of
Pachira aquatica Aubl. (1775) to obtain pheromones to be used
in your control. The work will be developed at the Research Laboratory in
Natural Resources (LPqRN) of the Institute of Chemistry and Biotechnology of
Federal University of Alagoas- – A.C. Simões Campus (9°33'88”S;
35°46'94"O) with the support of the Municipal Secretariat for the Environment of Belo
Horizonte (SMMABH), Belo Horizonte City Hall (PBH) and the Foundation of
Municipal and Zoobotany Parks (FPMZ) of the State of Minas Gerais.
