The present study aimed to record seasonal dynamics and diversity of different insect pests in cotton agroecosystems. Two well-known cotton growing districts i.e. district Layyah and Vehari were selected for the study from the cotton belt of Punjab, Pakistan. Sampling was done bi-weekly for two consecutive years from July to October during 2018 and 2019. Sweep netting, visual counting, hand picking, wet finger method, beat sheets, aspirator and pitfall trapping methods were used for collection. Shannon-Wiener and Simpson indices were used to compute diversity while Menhinick and Margalef indices were used for the estimation of species richness. A total of 94,343 individuals representing 43 species, 40 genera, 28 families and 6 orders were recorded. Family Aleyrodidae dominated over other pest families. (Gennadius, 1889) of family Aleyrodidae was the dominant species with 39.68% share among all pest species. Estimated species richness of all arthropod pest species belonging to both districts were about 94%. The densities of pests fluctuated with time. The peaks of sucking pest densities were observed in July and August while densities of chewing pests peaked in late September or early October each year. Population densities of jassids (Ishida), armyworm (Fabricius), and pink bollworm (Saunders), showed strong negative correlation with temperature, humidity and rainfall while thrips population density showed positive correlation with these parameters. Minor loss due to pests are acceptable everywhere, but it is only possible when their populations remain below their economic threshold levels. Present study will aid to design pest management strategies in cotton growing areas round the globe.
