The adults of the Sagalassa valida Walker butterfly (Lepidoptera: Brachodidae), known locally as “Oil palm root borer”, are attracted by nectars from the flowers of weed plants, being not harmful to the adult stage; However, when they are larvae, they damage the roots and in many cases they consume all the roots of the plant, causing them to overturn. The objectives of the present work were to determine the population fluctuation of Sagalassa valida Walker adults, the relationship and the proportion of sexes. The research was carried out in the province of Tocache for a year (January 2015 to February 2016) in three oil palm plots, each of 20 hectares. The plots were located in the Nuevo San Antonio, Challuayacu and Cañuto sectors. In each sector, an area of 10 hectares of palm was taken, at the edges of which 1 verbena plant was sown for every two lines of palm, reaching 20 verbena plants in only 10 hectares. The verbena sowing was carried out on 2 dates, the first in January and the second in May, the purpose of which was to have flowering throughout the year. The evaluations were carried out with a frequency, taking as a reference the methodology proposed by Sáenz and Betancourt (2006) considering the characteristics of the verbena. In each sector for the capture of adults an entomological mesh was used, making two passes of the net in a linear way on each verbena plant, between 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and in the afternoon between 4:30 a.m. at 6:00. After the morning sampling, females and males were identified and recorded in an evaluation card. The results show that the populations increase as of May for the three sectors, obtaining maximum population peaks in the months of August and September due to scarce rainfall and variations in temperature and humidity, decreasing from October with a lower level in February, due to increased rains; Likewise, in the proportion of sexes, a greater population of females than males was evidenced for the three sectors Nuevo San Antonio, Challuayacu and Cañuto, with 3.36♀: 1♂, 3.44♀: 1♂ and 3.7♀: 1♂, finally concluding that the Higher populations of females were recorded in the absence of the rains.
