Date of creation:

Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Accuracy of map:

It is created on information taken from the open published literature and maps of scale 1: 33 000 000 . 1: 17 000 000.

Projection:

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

Basic content:

Vector map. Area and zone of damage are shown by polygons.

Accuracy of the classifier:

The largest part of the territory of the USSR southward of forest-tundra is included in Pieris napi area. Here the zone of low damage is allocated where the pest has economic significance. The biology of P. napi and P. rapae is very close. Therefore, the economic threshold for the latter species have been used. The threshold during the phase of leaf whorl is 10% of populated plants at average caterpillar density of 2-5 individuals per plant, and during the phase of head setting it is 15% of the populated plants at average density of 1-2 caterpillars per plant (Sazonov et al., 1991). Generally, it is counted with other pierids and other lepidopteran pests of cruciferous cultures in the majority of regions.

Method of map production:

The map is compiled by results of the analysis of the open published materials and maps. The P. napi area in the territory of the USSR is shown for all subspecies (5 to 7) and forms with uncertain taxonomic position. The species lives in Baltic States, Byelorussia, Moldova, Ukraine, the Caucasus, Transcaucasia, in mountain areas of Middle Asia and Kazakhstan (except for high mountains), in Northern Kazakhstan. In Russia, it is distributed everywhere (except for tundra and mountain tundra; being a migrant species in forest-tundra); i.e., in the European part (except for extreme southeast), the Urals, Siberia (except for the north of Eastern Siberia), the Far East (including Sakhalin, the south of Kamchatka and Magadan Regions, and Kurile Islands). Northern border of P. napi area is drawn along border of forest-tundra and taiga (after Vorob.eva, 1986) that corresponds to the published materials (Yakhontov, 1953; Znamenskaya, 1962; Kurentsov, 1970; Nekrutenko, 1974; Sedykh, 1974; Charushina & Shernin, 1974; Korshunov, 1985; Kutenkova, 1986; Lukhtanov & Lukhtanov, 1994; L.vovskii, 1999; Tatarinov, 2001; Yanovskii, 2002; Dubatolov, 2005; Chernov & Tatarinov, 2006; etc.). Deserts and high mountains of Central Asia and Kazakhstan are excluded from the area. In forest-tundra, the species is a migrant; therefore, this zone is also excluded from the area. The zone of damage is allocated after the data of authors of the applied literature (see Reference citations), being restricted to the European part (southward to the Northern Caucasus), Western Siberia, and Northern Kazakhstan, and being corrected according with a map of cabbage cultivation (Terekhina, 2004).
