Abstract:
A composition for controlling harmful fungi, comprising a solid or liquid carrier and synergistically effective amounts of an acaricide selected from the group consisting of: pyridaben of the formula ##STR17## fenpyroximate of the formula ##STR18## and tebufenpyrad of the formula ##STR19## and at least one amide compound of the formula I:A--CO--NR.sup.1 R.sup.2 (I)whereinA is pyridyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by 1, 2 or 3 substituents selected from the group consisting of alkyl, halogen, CHF.sub.2 and CF.sub.3 ;R.sup.1 is a hydrogen atom;R.sup.2 is a phenyl or cycloalkyl group which is unsubstituted or substituted by 1, 2 or 3 substituents which independently of one another are selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkynyloxy, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkoxy, cycloalkenyloxy, phenyl and halogen,wherein the aliphatic and cycloaliphatic radicals are unsubstituted or may be partially or completely halogenated and the cycloaliphatic radicals may further be substituted by 1 to 3 alkyl groups, andwherein the phenyl group is unsubstituted or substituted by 1 to 5 halogen atoms and may further be substituted by 1 to 3 substituents which independently from one another are selected from alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, haloalkoxy, alkylthio and haloalkylthio, and wherein the phenyl group may further be fused to a saturated, 5-membered ring which is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more alkyl groups and/or can have a hetero atom selected from O and S.
