The corn ground beetle (Zabrus tenebrioides) is a typical pest of small grains, mostly of wheat and barley, and to some extent of rye. In spring 1989, a small-scale (2 ha) but intensive attack of corn ground beetle larvae on sugarbeet was registered in the location of Becej (Yugoslavia). In the infested plot, wheat preceded sugarbeet for two consecutive years. In the more heavily infested part of the plot, 15 to 20 of sugarbeet plants were damaged or destroyed. Consequently, the pest had to be treated with Monokrotofos. The effect of the treatment was satisfactory. Although such infestations are uncommon, they indicate that increased attention must be devoted to sugarbeet grown after a prolonged cereal monoculture, especially if in intensive occurrence of the corn ground beetle had been registered.
