Abstract/Contents:"The use of fiberglass resin material to make castings of mole cricket tunnels has helped differentiate between the behavior of the two species, the tawny mole cricket, Scapteriscus vicinus, and the southern mole cricket S. borellii. The behavioral differences provide insight into the differences observed in damage and the success of specific management approaches. The placement of fungal pathogens in the soil may influence the effectiveness of the product. The avoidance behavior obseved appears to be an evolutionary adaption to avoid high concentrations of pathogens. Much of the research activity this year involved analysis of data and manuscript preparation. The current tally of research publications in print or under review associated with this research project includes fifteen refereed publications. Several other trade journal articles have also been developed as a result of the research findings from this project."
