[Method] The quantity of pests, size of female pests and quantity of ova of A. mu-ratae in Suzhou in different host plants under two planting methods and in four di-rections of a host plant were measured. [Result] A. muratae exhibits selectivity to host plants, and their quantity, female pest size and reproductive capacity are higher in Magnolia grandiflora（southern magnolia） than in other plants. The four directions of the host plant suffer to different extents, and the north part is usual y the most in-jured. Mass-planted southern magnolias are more seriously impacted than individual y-planted ones. Both size and weight of a female pest have significant linear relations with ovum quantity, and the weight of a female pest is more closely related to its ovum quantity. Based on the weight of a female pest, we can predict the exact ovum quantity according to the equation y=2E-05x＋0.003 7. [Conclusion] The research re-sults provide reference for making an effective control plan for A. muratae.展开更多
