This article examines the biology and ecology of Eurygaster integriceps Puton (commonly known as the Sunn pest), one of the most destructive insect pests in wheat agroecosystems. The study discusses the pest's life cycle, morphological characteristics, seasonal development, overwintering behavior, feeding habits, and ecological adaptations. Particular attention is given to the influence of environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and agricultural practices on population dynamics. The article also analyzes the economic damage caused by E. integriceps to wheat production and emphasizes the importance of integrated pest management (IPM), including biological, cultural, and chemical control measures, for sustainable crop protection and improved wheat yield.
