Abstract
Current publication is devoted to application of ELP-model (egg - larvae - pupae) for analysis of pine looper moth (Bupalus piniarius L.) dynamics in Netherlands (Klomp, 1966) and determination of asymptotic stable dynamic regimes. Method for estimation of model parameters (without using of any minimizing functional forms) when several correlated time series must be taken into account is described. Parameters of ELP-model were estimated, and it allowed creating two following hypotheses about pine looper moth dynamics: it may correspond to strong 2-cycle or non-rigorous 3-cycle.

Keywords pine looper dynamics;mathematical model;estimation model parameters;asymptotic regimes.
