1:20,000,000.Accuracy of map:
Map was created using a map of scale 1:33,000,000 and information from published literature.Projection:
"Alber's Equal Conica for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.Basic content:
Vector map consisting of 3 thematic layers. Area of distribution and zones of pest damage are shown by polygons.Accuracy of classifier:
Threshold of harmfulness for most species of cabbage flea beetle on cabbage seedlings is 3-5 adults per plant with pest colonization of more than 10% of seedlings; on root crop seedlings, it is 5-10 adults per plant with more than 5-10% of seedlings colonized; on mustard seedlings, it is 20-30 adults per square meter. Within the area of distribution, zones of low and moderate damage were established according to the extent of pest damage on agricultural plants. In the zone of moderate damage, the maximum harmfulness of cabbage flea beetles is generally not more than 3 points on the 5-point scale of harmfulness; in the zone of low damage, it is 1, rarely 2 points (Kopaneva et al., 1982).Mapping procedure:
Data from state publications was used to map the distribution area and zones of pest damage. Map of the distribution area is based on Shapiro (1961), Lopatin (1977), Medvedev & Ammosov (1978), Kostromitin (1980), Lopatin & Kulenova (1986), Dubeshko & Medvedev (1989), and Medvedev (1992). The pest is found in taiga but is absent in sub-arctic territories. The zones of pest damage were mapped using Dobrovol'skii (1951), Palii (1961), Samedov (1963), Putele (1970), Shutak (1973), Kopaneva (1982), and Dubeshko & Medvedev (1989). Borders of the zone of low damage were adapted to match economically significant areas of crucifer vegetable crops and rape in republics of Central Asia and Southern Kazakhstan. The zone of moderate damage includes the European part of the former USSR, Central and Southern Ural, Western and Eastern Siberia, Northern Kazakhstan and the Primorskii Territory.Sources of data:
