The experiment was conducted at Central Horticulture Nursery, Department of Horticulture, VNMKV, Parbhani, during the year 2014-2015 to study seasonal incidence of major sucking pests of pomegranate aphids, thrips, Mealybug and coccinellides was recorded during 1^st to 52^nd meteorological weeks of 2014. The data indicated that the sucking pest population was high from first week of January to second week of March (1^st to 11^th MW) and third week of October to last week of December (42^nd to 52^nd MW). The first peak of aphid population 13.91 aphids/twig Occured during 3^rd MW. Whereas the first peak of thrips (11.00 thrips/twig) was recorded during 51^st MW recording considerable incidence during 1^st to 9^th MW and 34^th to 52^nd MW. The natural enemies population was mostly severe from first week of January to first week of February (1^st to 6^th MW), and (42^nd to 52^nd MW) indicating positive interaction between major sucking pests and Coccinelids on pomegranate.
