Recurvaria pistaciicola Danilevskii, the larva, female pupa and adults of which are described, infests the fruits of pistachio (Pistacia vera) in Uzbekistan, Turkmenia, Tadzhikistan, Persia and Afghanistan, causing crop losses of up to 40 per cent. in Uzbekistan. Observations on its bionomics showed that it had two-three generations a year, hibernating in the pupal and adult stages.
