Damage symptoms of the jujube leafroller
The jujube leafroller, also known as the jujube sickle-winged tortricid, leaf-tying worm, leafroller, wheel worm, jujube small moth, and jujube fruit diamondback moth. Its larvae damage buds, leaves, fruiting branches, flowers, and fruit. This pest has many generations and large populations, and spreads easily into outbreaks; in severe cases, an entire jujube orchard looks pitch-black from a distance, as if scorched by fire, causing a total loss of the jujube harvest.
