In addition, we are witnessing global climate change that also affects the composition and density of entomofauna in these agro-ecological areas. Under the influence of these two decisive factors, the dynamics of a pest population is oscillating and, therefore, some less known or newly entered species in the research area (invasive species) begin to cause significant damage to crops and especially to their control. 20 years after the first mentions of the attack, this pest causes considerable damage to the pepper crop, in the case of the present study, paprika. From the pepper crop for paprika, in 2020 in Chi\u0219laca locality, Arad County, a number of 11 pest species were collected. The species Helicoverpa armigera was the predominant species, registering the highest number of specimens.The dynamics of larval populations showed an oscillating evolution, depending on climatic conditions, the maximum threshold being reached on the third decade of August.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.54574\/rjpp.14.09","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,18]],"date-time":"2022-01-18T11:51:34Z","timestamp":1642506694000},"page":"75-84","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["IS HELICOVERPA ARMIGERA (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) A KEY PEST IN WESTERN ROMANIAN PAPRIKA PEPPER CROPS?"],"prefix":"10.54574","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Ana-Maria","family":"V\u00eerteiu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana-Maria","family":"Seibert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ramona","family":"\u0218tef","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alin","family":"C\u0103r\u0103be\u021b","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Codru\u021ba","family":"Chi\u0219","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ioana","family":"Grozea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Plant Protection, Banat\u2019s University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine \"King Michael I of Romania\" from Timisoara"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"33085","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"\"BAIKAR, A.
