    In the title compound, C11H11BrN2O2S, the thia­zole ring makes a dihedral angle of 53.16 (11)° with the adjacent benzene ring. The two meth­oxy groups are slightly twisted from the attached benzene ring with C—O—C—C torsion angles of −9.2 (3) and −5.5 (3)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by a pair of N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds into an inversion dimer with an R 2 2(8) ring motif. The dimers are further connected by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a tape along [-110]

    MONITORING CALIFORNIA RED SCALE AND ITS APHELINID PARASITOID USING YELLOW STICKY TRAPS. Yellow sticky traps, which had been erected to monitor the dispersal of the sweet-potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Gennadius, from cotton fields to citrus orchards in Texas, also attracted adult male Aonidiella aurantii (Maskell) and its parasitoid Aphytis sp. Populations in three citrus orchards representing different host-plant varieties and maturity were studied and the effect of these and some environmental parameters on the numbers of male A. aurantii and of its parasitoid caught on the traps are described. Key words: Rio Grand Valley, Aphelinidae, Diaspididae, flight periods, temperature, relative humidity, evaporation, wind speed, correlation

    In the title compound, C14H11FO3S, the unit comprising the ethanone and 4-fluoro­phenyl groups is essentially planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0084 (2) Å for the ten non-H atoms, and it makes a dihedral angle of 37.31 (10)° with the phenyl ring. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by pairs of weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into inversion dimers with R 2 2(16) graph-set motifs. The dimers are stacked along the b axis through further C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds

    In the asymmetric unit of the title benzofuran derivative, C10H10N2O2, there are three crystallograpically independent mol­ecules, which are slightly twisted; the dihedral angle between the benzofuran ring system and the plane of the carbohydrazide unit is 8.64 (11)° in one mol­ecule, whereas the dihedral angles are 9.58 (11) and 6.89 (10)° in the other two mol­ecules. In the crystal, the three independent mol­ecules are linked to each other through N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming a trimer. The trimers are further linked by weak N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network. π–π inter­actions with centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.4928 (11)–3.8561 (10) Å are also observed
