Seasonal dynamics of damage of small-leaved lime trees by phylophagous phyllophagous arthropods

Seasonal dynamics of damage of small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata) trees by phylophagous arthropods was monitored in Izhevsk during the period from 1999 to 2002. The experimental works were performed on 15 plots. Ten model trees were selected within each plot. From May 30 to September 10, once every ten days, damage of leaves was assessed in the same model branch selected from the lower layer of the tree crowns (northern aspect, 150 trees). The complex of phylophagous arthropods in linden includes 33 species of 17 families of 7 orders.
