This study was conducted to investigate the effect of attractant mixture on capture efficacy on Platypus koryoensis, an insect vector of oak wilt disease in Korea. We compared three treatments, such as Citral:EtOH(5:95), EtOH, and no attractant. In order to compare the attractants, Lindgren multi-funnel traps were installed in three oak forests in the Incheon Grand Park. A total of 18 traps was installed, and traps were replaced biweekly. A total of 236, 85, and 25 individuals were collected in Citral:EtOH, EtOH, and control, respectively. Although a mixture of Citral:EtOH seems more effective in attracting P. koryoensis, number of individuals of P. koryoensis caught by attractants was different according to study sites.
