Seventeen hundred eighty four samples surveyed during sampling, which belongs to 38 species 26 genera and 5 families. Pieridae is the dominant family followed by Nymphalidae and Lycaenidae respectively, the least dominant family is Papilionidae and Hesperidae.

Abstract:

Fall armyworm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda is an alien invasive pest which has been highly adapted to the climatic conditions of Sri Lanka in recent times. The fall armyworm caused a severe loss of maize production since its introduction in late 2018. The pest infected approximately 50% of the maize cultivation and caused 20% of total damage by its fast migration as well as breeding abilities. It is hard to control the fall armyworm because of these special characteristics. However, there are several methods used in other countries to keep the population and infestation under control. Hence, integrated pest management strategies are believed to be an effective strategy to control the FAW. Therefore, this review discusses the infestation and control of FAW, which could be important to improve the control in Sri Lanka.


Abstract:

Eliminating local and global poverty is a presenting challenge and a task that must be accomplished in setting out for the achievement of sustainable development per the 17 Goals of the UN, with adequate health provisions and sustainable environment. As people tend to live longer, there are dwindling and limited resources for the world's growing population, with tendency towards abject poverty among vulnerable populations. The economies of the tropical and sub-tropical regions of Africa, Asia and Latin America have consequentially been made to run the gauntlet in the exacerbated poverty, declining health and environmental prospects in the COVID-19 pandemic era.

Abstract:

As the complexity and spread of vertical and horizontal flux change has increased in recent times owing to internal and external exigencies, it has become apparent that just leading change initiatives without bonding and problem solving skills is not nearly sufficient to effect satisfactory change.The pressure emanating to transform can be seen across a wide spectrum of players endeavouring to problem solve so as tocope with change. Coping with change has become a constant challenge for contemporary leaders, communities, governments and corporations. This paper discusses problem-solving skills as a key requirement to enable change management. Problem solving skills are skills possessing the ability to solve problems in an effective and timely manner devoid ofimpediments or be-as-it-may; with minimal acceptable impediments. It involves being able to identify and define the problem, generate alternative solutions, evaluate and select the best alternative, and implement the best optedsolution. How to manage this process in the face of nagging pressure for continuous change to keep up with competition and market demands is the headache that the paper delves into; the elephant in the room.
