Subject(s): Online resources: In: Bulletin of the Entomological Society of Egypt (A.R.E.), Economic series 2007.v.33Summary: Callosobruchus chinensis is one of the most serious pests which cause great damage to several pulse crops during storage (Singh et al., 1977). To protect different stored crops from insect attack. there are natural and 000- insecticidal extracts. The plant derivatives are desirable because they don't contaminate environment and are safe for users and consumers (Finney, 1990). In the search for alternatives to commercial insecticides and fumigants, essential oils extracted from plants have been investigated (Regnault and Hamraoui, 1994; Namrata et ai., 1997; Ketoh etal., 2000; Adhikari et aI., 2002 and Park et aI., 2003).
