Abstract
ABSTRACT Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) are well-established plant protection tools for the control of insect pests. The release of EPN species is often limited to species that are endemic in the country. Therefore, surveys to check for the presence of EPN species in the country are necessary. Here, a sampling and baiting method based on the in situ attraction of EPN to insects contained in a plastic tube is described. Heterorhabditis downesi was isolated from overgrown dunes at the Baltic coast and Steinernema feltiae from chromic luvisol further inland. This is the first report of the presence of H. downesi in Germany.
