Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) has been commercially developed since the late 1990's in Newfoundland and Labrador. At that time, the insect fauna of the extensive stands of native, wild cranberry was not known, although these might provide a reservoir for pests to move to commercial sites. The occurrence and distribution of cranberry-feeding insects were assessed in wild stands to help cranberry growers prepare for the insect pests they might have to manage. Adults of the cranberry fruitworm, Acrobasis vaccinii were recovered in pheromone traps and larvae found in berries. The fruitworm was common and widespread. Moths of the cranberry girdler, Chrysoteuchia topiaria were caught in pheromone traps, but larvae were not recovered from plant or soil samples. There was no evidence of the black-headed fireworm, Rhopobota naevana, the cranberry weevil, Anthonomus musculus, the red-headed flea beetle, Systena frontalis, or the cranberry tipworm, Dasineura oxycoccana, serious cranberry pests in other areas. However, larvae of the lingonberry fruitworm, Grapholita libertina, were found infesting cranberry at one site in 1998. Of the species found in this study, A. vaccinii probably represents the most serious threat to the industry.

Highbush Blueberries

Cranberry fruitworms (Acrobasis vaccinii Riley) are native to North America and have been classified as pests since the introduction of cranberry as an agricultural product (Tomlinson 1960). As larvae, these moths are the primary pest of large fruit cranberries and a significant pest of highbush blueberries (Fitzpatrick 2008).   Also published on the Featured Creatures website at http://entnemdept.ufl.edu/creatures/FRUIT/MOTHS/Acrobasis_vaccinii.html

Abstract Insecticides were applied to mature blueberry bushes at the Trevor Nichols Research Complex in Douglas, MI at a rate of 50 GPA with a FMC 1029 airblast sprayer. Treatment plots were arranged in a CRB design of two 44 ft long rows containing a total of 22 bushes, replicated 4 times. Funginex was applied separately to all treatments. Applications of materials were made on 10 Jun (1st egg laying, Bloom), 19 Jun (Petal Fall), 25 Jun (PF + 7 days), and 2 Jul (1C). Harvest fruit evaluations were made on 12 Jul by randomly picking 25 blueberry fruit clusters per replicate, or 100 clusters per treatment, and evaluating the fruit for CBFW and CFW injury.
