Abstract：A survey was conducted to assess the effects of apricot trees on insect pests and their natural enemies in
adjacent cotton fields in Shache county，Xinjiang Province from 2008 to 2011． The results show that the species
composition of natural enemies and insect pests was similar between isolated cotton fields and those adjacent to apricot
trees． Apricot trees，did however，have a negative effect on the occurrence of Lygus pratensis、Thrips tabaci and
Acyrthosiphon gossyfii． Interplanting and the occurrence of Aphis gossyfii greatly influenced on the occurrence of ladybirds
and bugs． Proximity to apricots also appeared to increase spider abundance．
