Notes

The sorgum shoot fly is a major pest to grain sorghum, particularly in regions where it is the major rainfed crop (Khaliq et al. 2022). This insect has a high rate of occurance after rainfall, making it a highly destructive species in locations all over the world ( Edde 2021). Khaliq et al. (2022) reported the presence of this species in Punjab, Pakistan. This species was observed from April to October (Fig. 3 ).
