Abstract

The western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) is a pest of high economic importance and causes considerable damage to a wide range of plants. Since its introduction in 1991, F. occidentalis has become a major greenhouse pest on vegetables and ornamentals in Bulgaria.According to the Climex model, the species cannot overwinter outdoors, but can produce up to 8 generations during favourable periods of the year. An increase of 0.9 degrees Celsius in the mean annual temperature will result in populations potentially overwintering in the South-Eastern coastal area of Bulgaria.
