Preferred embodiments of the pesticide containing the compound of the present invention will be described below. The pesticide containing the compound of the present invention is useful, for example, as an agent to control insects, mites, nematodes or soil pests which become problematic in the agricultural and horticultural fields, i.e. as an agricultural and horticultural insecticide, miticide, nematicide or soil pesticide or as an agent to control insects or mites parasitic on animals i.e. as an agent to control parasites on animals.
The compound of the present invention is useful as an agricultural and
horticultural insecticide, miticide, nematicide or soil pesticide. Specifically, it is effective to control insects, e.g. aphids such as green peach aphid (Mvzus persicae) and cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii); agricultural insect pests such as diamondback moth (Plutella xyjostella), cabbage armyworm (Mamestra brassicae), common cutworm (Spodoptera litura), codling moth (Cvdia pomonella), bollworm(Heliothis zea), tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens), gypsy moth (Lvmantria dispar), rice leafroller
(Cnaphalocrocis medjnalis), smaller tea tortrix (Adoxophyes sp_J, Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), cucurbit leaf beetle (Aulacophora femoralis), boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis), planthoppers, leafhoppers, scales, bugs, whiteflies, thrips, grasshoppers, anthomyiid flies, scarabs, black cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon), cutworm (Agrotis segetum) and ants; gastropods such as slugs and snails; hygienic insect pests such as tropical rat mite (Qrnithonvssus bacoti), cockroaches, housefly (Musca domestica) and house mosquito (Culex pipiens); stored grain insect such as angoumois grain moth (Sitotroga cerealella), adzuki bean weevil (Callosobruchus chinensis), red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum) and mealworms; and household goods insect pests such as casemaking clothes moth (Tinea pellionella), black carpet beetle (Attagenus japonicus) and subterranean termites; mites, e.g. plant parasitic mites such as two-spotted spider mite (Tetranvchus urticae), carmine spider mite (Tetranvchus cinnabarinus). kanzawa spider mite (Tetranvchus kanzawai), citrus red mite (Panonychus citri), European red mite (Panonvchus ulmi), broad mite

The pesticides against parasites on animals are effective for controlling e.g.
harmful external parasites which are parasitic on the body surface of host animals (such as the back, the axilla, the lower abdomen or inside of the thigh) or harmful internal parasites which are parasitic in the body of host animals (such as the stomach, the intestinal tract, the lung, the heart, the liver, the blood vessels, the subcutis or lymphatic tissues), but they are particularly effective for controlling the external parasites.
The external parasites may, for example, be animal parasitic acarus or fleas.
Their species are so many that it is difficult to list all of them, and therefore, their typical examples will be given.
The animal parasitic acarus may, for example, be ticks such as Boophilus microplus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Haemaphvsalis lonqicornis, Haemaphvsalis flava, Haemaphvsalis campanulata, Haemaphvsalis concinna, Haemaphvsalis japonica, Haemaphvsalis kitaokai, Haemaphvsalis ias, Ixodes oyatus, Ixodes

The animal parasitic fleas may, for example, be externally parasitic wingless insects belonging to Siphonaptera, more specifically, fleas belonging to Pulicidae,
Ceratephyllus, etc. Fleas belonging to Pulicidae may for example, be
Ctenocephalides canis, Ctenocephalides felis, Pulex irritans, Echidnophaga qallinacea, Xenopsylla cheopis, Leptopsylla segnis, Nosopsyllus fasciatus, and Monopsyllus anisus. The pesticides against parasites on animals, containing the compounds of the present invention, are particularly effective for the control of fleas belonging to
Pulicidae, particularly Ctenocephalides canis and Ctenocephalides felis, among them.
Other external parasites may, for example, be sucking lice (An jolura) such as shortnosed cattle louse (Haematopinus eurysternus), horse sucking louse
(Haematopinus asini), sheep louse, longnosed cattle louse (Linognathus vituli), and head louse (Pediculus capitis); biting lice such as dog biting louse (Trichodectes canis); and blood-sucking dipterous insects such as horsefly (Tabanus trigonus), biting midges (Culicoides schultzei), and blackfly (Simulium ornatum). Further, the internal parasites may, for example, be nematodes such as lung worms, whipworms
(Trichuris), tuberous worms, gastric parasites, ascaris, and filarioidea; cestoda such as Spirometra erinacei, Diphyllobothrium latum, Dipylidium caninum, Taenia multiceps, Echinococcus granulosus, and Echinococcus multilocularis; trematoda such as
Schistosoma iaponicum and Fasciola hepatica; and protozoa such as coccidia, malaria parasites (Plasmodium malariae), intestinal sarcocyst, toxoplasma, and Cryptosporidium.
The host animals may, for example, be pet animals, domestic animals, and poultry, such as dogs, cats, mice, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, squirrels, rabbits, ferrets, birds (such as pigeons, parrots, hill mynas, Java sparrows, honey parrots, lovebirds and canaries), cows, horses, pigs, sheep, ducks and chickens. The pesticides against parasites on animals, containing the compounds of the present invention, are particularly effective for the control of pests parasitic on pet animals or domestic animals, especially for the control of external parasites, among them.
Among pet animals or domestic animals, they are effective particularly for dogs and cats, cows and horses.

TEST EXAMPLE 1
Test on adults of two-spotted spider mite ( Tetranychus urticae )
An insecticidal solution was prepared to bring the concentration of the compound of the present invention to 50 ppm. A kidney bean having only one primordial leaf left, was transplanted to a pot ( diameter: 8 cm, height: 7 cm ), and 20 adults of two-spotted spider mite were released thereon. Together with the kidney bean leaf, they were dipped in the above insecticidal solution for about 5 seconds, dried in air and then left in a constant temperature chamber at 25°C with lightening. On the second or third day after the treatment, the number of dead adults were counted, and the mortality of adults was calculated by the following equation. Adults that dropped from the leaf or were moribund were included in the number of dead. The test was carried out with respect to the above-mentioned Compound Nos. 1-1 , 1 -24, 1 -25, 3-1 , 4-1 , 4-2, 4-5, 4- 6, 4-7, 4-8, 4-11 , 4-13, 4-14, 4-15, 4-17, 4-18, 4-19, 4-20, 4-23, 4-29, 4-75, 4-77, 4-79,

TEST EXAMPLE 2
Test on controlling effects against brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens)
Rice seedling was dipped for about 10 seconds in an insecticidal solution adjusted to bring the concentration of the compound of the present invention to 200 ppm and then dried in air, its root was wrapped with a wet absorbent cotton, and the seedling was put into a test tube. Then, 20 second-third instar nymphs of brown planthopper were released therein, and the test tube was covered with a gauze and left in a constant temperature chamber at 25°C with lightening. On the 5th day after the release, the number of dead nymphs were counted, and the mortality was calculated by the following equation.
The test was carried out with respect to the above-mentioned Compound Nos. 3- 1 , 4-17, 4-85, 6-1 , 6-11 , 6-28, 6-34, 7-1 , 20-1 , 24-1 , 24-27, 25-3, 25-27, 36-25, 36-26, 37-25, 37-29, 37-30, 37-51 , 37-52, 37-65, 37-76, 37-85, 37-87, 37-88, 37-89, 37-90, 37-143, 37-144, 37-145, 37-146, 37-147, 37-152, 37-159, 37-160, 37-162, 37-163, 37- 164, 37-167, 37-193, 37-194, 37-205, 38-3, 38-4, 41 -9, 41 -10, 41 -21 , 41 -31 , 42-9, 42- 10, 42-13, 42-15, 42-17, 42-29, 42-31 , 42-32, 42-33, 42-34, 42-35, 43-9, 43-10, 46-15, 48-1 , 50-1 , whereby all compounds showed a mortality of at least 90%.
