Ten parts of each of the present compounds (1) to (6), (8) to (23), (30), (31), and (34) to (40); white carbon containing 50 parts of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfate ammonium salt: and 55 parts of water were mixed and pulverized by the wet grinding method to give a formulation for each compound. The formulation of each present compound was diluted with water so that the active ingredient concentration came to 500 ppm to prepare a spray solution.
A polyethylene cup was seeded with cucumber and a plant was grown until the first true leaf was developed, on which about twenty Aphis gossypii (cotton aphid) are allowed to be parasitic. On the next day, the above spray solution was applied at a ratio of 20 ml/cup to the cucumber plant. On the sixth day after the application, the number of Aphis gossypii was examined and the preventive value was determined by the following equation:
Preventive value (%) = {1 - (Cb x Tai) / (Cai x Tb)} x 100
where the variables in the equation have the following meanings:

Cb: the number of pests before treatment in an untreated area Cai: the number of pests when observed in the untreated area Tb: the number of pests before treatment in a treated area Tai: the number of pests when observed in the treated area. As a result, all the present compounds (1) to (6), (8) to (23), (30), (31), and (34) to (40) exhibited the preventive value of 90% or higher. Test Example 2

The formulation of each present compound was diluted with water so that the active ingredient concentration came to 500 ppm to prepare a spray solution.
A polyethylene cup was seeded with cucumber and a plant was grown until the first true leaf was developed, to which the above spray solution was applied at a ratio of 20 m.l/cup. After the chemical solution sprayed to the cucumber were dried, the first true leaf was cut off and placed on a filter paper (70 mm in diameter) impregnated with water in a polyethylene cup (110 mm in diameter). Thirty larvae of Frankliniella occidentahs (Western flower thrips) were set free on the iirst true leaf, which was covered with a polyethylene cup. After seven days, the number of surviving pests was ex¬amined.
As a result, the number of siuiving pests was 0 on the leaves treated with each of the present compounds (2), (4), (6), (7), (8), (11), (12), (14), (16), (17), (19) to (24), (26), (28), (29), (34), (36) to (38), and (40).

(34) to (40); white carbon containing 50 parts of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfate ammonium salt; and 55 parts of water were mixed and pulverized by the wet grinding method to give a formulation for each compound. formulation of each present compound was diluted with water so that the active ingredient concentration came to 500 ppm to prepare a spray solution. A polyethylene cup was seeded with cabbage and a plant was grown until the first true leaf was developed. The first true leaf was left, while the other leaves were cut off. Adults of Bemisia argentifolii (silverleaf whitefly) were set free on the first true leaf and allowed to lay eggs for about 24 hours. The cabbage leaf with about 80 to 100 eggs thus laid thereon was kept in a greenhouse. On eighth day after, when greater part of the larvae were hatching from the laid eggs, the above spray solution was applied at a ratio of 20 ml/cup to the cabbage plant. On the seventh day after the application, the number of surviving larvae was counted.
As a result, the number of surviving larvae was not greater than 10 on the cabbage leaves treated with each of the present compounds (2) to (8), (10) to (32) and (34) to (40). Test Example 4
Ten parts of each of the present compounds (1) to (23) and (25) to (40); white carbon containing 50 parts of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfate am¬monium salt; and 55 parts of water were mixed and pulverized by the wet grinding method to give a formulation for each compound. The formulation of each present compound obtained according to Formulation Example 5 was diluted so that the active ingredient concentration came to 500 ppm to prepare a spray solution-Fifty grams of molding Bonsoru 2 (available from Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.) was put into a polyethylene cup, and 10 to 15 seeds of rice were planted in the polyethylene cup. Then rice plants were grown until the

second foliage leaves developed and then cut into the same height of 5 cm. The above spray solution was applied at the rate of 20 ml/cup to these rice plants. After the chemical solution sprayed onto the rice plants were dried, thirty first-instar larvae of Nilaparvata lugens (brown planthopper) were set free on the rice plants, which was then left in a greenhouse at 25°C. On the sixth Say after the release of larvae of Nilaparvata lugens, the number of parasitic Nilaparvata lugens on the rice plants was examined.
As a result, in the treatment with each of the present compounds (1) to (23) and (25) to (40), the number of parasitic Nilaparvata lugens on the sixth day after the treatment was not greater than 3.
