Abstract: The materials discuss the issue of the presence of fungi-micromycetes causing diseases of caterpillars of one of the most dangerous pests of cotton – cotton scoops. In 2020-2021, 20 species of micromycetes were identified and isolated into pure culture. 50 wax moth caterpillars were artificially infected with these cultures. As a result, only 2-4% of the dead caterpillars were noted. These strains of fungi are pathogens and have entomopathogenic properties, but have no practical interest.
Key words: Cotton scoop, caterpillar, wax moth, entomopathogenic micromycetes, pure culture, strain, systematic taxa, culture fluid, filtrate, toxicity.
