Date of creation:

12.08.2004.

Scale:

1:20,000,000.

Accuracy of map:

Map was created using information from state publications and maps of scale 1:20,000,000-1:40,000,000.

Projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic content:

Vector map consisting of 3 layers. Distribution area and zones of damage are shown by polygons.

Accuracy of classifier:

Within the pest distribution area within the former USSR, 2 zones were allocated - zones of moderate and low harm. In the zone of moderate harm, the number of L. dispar usually exceeds the economic threshold under weather conditions favorable for egg-laying and caterpillar-hatching. The economic threshold is 0.5-1 egg-batches per tree before buds blossom and 10-15% damaged leaves after buds blossom. In the zone of low harm, the number occasionally (1-2 times per decade) reaches the economic threshold (Tanskii, 1985; Dolzhenko, 2004).

Mapping procedure:

The map was compiled following an analysis of state publications and maps. The map by Baranchikov (1988) was used as a prototype. The northern border of the distribution area was corrected using Utkin (1998) in the Ural region, as well as Rozhkov & Vasil'ev (1982) and Kondakov (1963) in the Baikal region; Sakhalin and S. Kurils (Kunashir, Shikotan, Iturup) were included based on Chistyakov (2003). In Central Asia, the distribution area covers mainly mountain and foothill areas (D'yakonov, Kozhanchikov, 1949; Khamdam-Zada, 1972; Kireeva, 1983; Gabrid, 1997; Koltunov et al., 1998). The zone of moderate harm was mapped using Polyakov et al. (1984) and adapted to include economically significant fruit crop cultivation areas (Tochenov et al., 1984). The zone of low harm coincides with economically significant areas of fruit crop cultivation that were not included in the zone of moderate harm (see sources of data).
