abstract
Major activity period of M. separata (Walker) was observed from 33^rd to 52^nd SW (13 Aug. to 31 December 2014). L. acuta (Thunberg) was active from 31^st to 46^th SW (30 July to 18 Nov. 2014). N. virescens (Distant) was observed from 27^th to 47^th SW (02 July to 25 Nov. 2014). T. subulata (Linnaeus) activity was observed from 26^th to 48 SW (25 June to 02 Dec. 2014) respectively. Among all the abiotic factors, rainfall and morning relative humidity were showed significantly negative correlation with M. separata sp. (r= -0.452*and-0.040 byx), (r= -0.450*and 0.108 byx), evening vapor pressure had significantly negative correlation (r= -0.394*and 0.470 byx) with N. virescens while minimum temperature, rainfall and morning relative humidity and evaporation has significantly positive correlation with the activity of T. subulata (r= +0.541** and byx= +0.104) (r= +0.529** and byx= +0.004) (r= +0.544** and byx= +0.016) (r= +0.561** and byx= +0.209).
