The experiment was conducted in RCBD with three replications and three treatments. Pretreatment observation was taken 24 hours before application of insecticides and post treatment observations were taken 48, 96 hours and 7 days after treatment. First spray after 96 hours’ the larvae population was lowest (0.90 plant-1) and after 7 days of spray highest (1.28 plant-1) while (2.09 plant- 1 live larvae plant-1) was recorded in control plot.

  • On the Development of the Male Genitalia and the Efferent Genital Ducts in Lepidoptera
    On the Development of the Male Genitalia and the Efferent Genital Ducts in Lepidoptera. By Dev Raj Mehta, M.Sc, Ph.D. (Cantab.) University Scholar of the Government of the Punjab. From the Department of Zoology, Cambridge. With 18 Text-figures. CONTENTS. PAGE INTRODUCTION .......... 35 MATEBIAL AND TECHNIQUE . .37 NOMENCLATURE 39 DESCRIPTION OF THE GENITAL ORGANS IN THE IMAGO . .39 DEVELOPMENT : (a) Genitalia 41 (6) Efferent Genital Ducts ....... 51 SUMMARY 59 REFERENCES .......... 60 INTRODUCTION. ONLY in a few groups of insects has the homology of the external genitalia been determined by investigations into the development of these organs. During the concluding part of the last century two conflicting views were held regarding the nature of gonapophyses. Accord- ing to Lacaze-Duthiers (1849-53), Grassi (1889), and Haase (1889) they are integumental outgrowths corresponding to the ' styloid' processes (' Griffel') which are present on the abdomen and inserted at the bases of the legs in such generalized insects as the Thysanura. On the other hand, Weismann (1864), Kraepelin (1873), Dewitz (1875), Huxley (1877), and Cholodkovsky (1891a) showed that the gonapophyses are comparable to the true D2 36 DBV RAJ MEHTA ambulatory legs. In this connexion Kraepelin (1873), Dewitz (1875), and others described these appendages as arising from imaginal discs, and Wheeler (1893) showed that there exists a direct continuity of the embryonic appendages with the Zander (1900,1901,1903) actually described the development of the penis and the gonapophyses ('valvae') in the post- embryonic stages of Hymenoptera, Trichoptera, and Lepido- ptera from paired rudiments or buds on the ninth abdominal segment. This formed a basis for later work on these lines, and his conclusions were largely confirmed in certain other insect orders.

  • Influence of Biochemical Parameters of Different Hosts on the Biology of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Earias Vittella
    Proc. Indian Acad. Sci. (Anim. Sci.), Vol. 96, No.3, May 1987, pp. 329-332. C(: Printed in India. Influence of biochemical parameters of different hosts on the biology of Esriss vittella (Fab.) (Noctuidae: Lepidoptera) R SUNDARARAJ and BV DAVID Fredrick Institute of Plant Protection and Toxicology, Padappai 601 301, India Abstract, The present study aims to understand the influence of biochemical parameters of the host plants viz Abelmoschus esculentus L., Gossypium hirsutum L. and Ahuti/on indicum G. Den. on the reproductive biology of Earias tittella. The results indicate remarkable variation in the biochemical parameters of host plants which affected significantly the growth index and reproductive potential of the insect species. Decrease in body weight, fecundity, prolongation of larval period, percentage of larva becoming adult and adult longevity of both male and female was observed when reared on Abutilon indicum which had less amount of reducing sugars, protein and free amino acids but had high amount of non reducing sugars. Decreased larval period, increased fecundity and adult longevity were observed when reared on cotton and okra which had high amount of reducing sugars, free amino acids and protein. There was no significant difference in the amount of total soluble sugars'among the 3 hosts tested. The growth index and fecundity of Earias uittella are apparently high on okra than on cotton. It is observed that high amount of reducing sugars, free amino acids and protein seems to be favourable for increase in fecundity of Earias tittel!a. Keywords. Earias rittella: reproductive biology: okra: cotton; Abutilon indicum; biochemical parameters; incidence.

(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae and/or pupae Received: 19/11/2015 (cocoons) were collected from five different cotton varieties (Giza 45, Giza Accepted: 22/12/2015 86, Giza 87, Giza 88, and Giza 92) have been grown in Sakha, Kafr El- Sheikh-Governorate at the end of cotton season 2014. Some biological _________________ aspects of these populations were investigated under laboratory conditions Keywords: at three constant temperatures (25, 27 and 30˚C).

  • Effect of Different Temperatures on the Development of Spotted Bollworm, Earias Vittella (Fab.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in the Laboratory
    Sindh Univ. Res. Jour. (Sci. Ser.) Vol.44 (3) 487-490 (2012) SINDH UNIVERSITY RESEARCH JOURNAL (SCIENCE SERIES) Effect Of Different Temperatures On The Development Of Spotted Bollworm, Earias Vittella (Fab.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) In The Laboratory M. A. SHAH, N. MEMON, A. MANAN* N.A. SHAH Department of Zoology, University of Sindh, Jamshoro Received 15th April 2012 and Revised 2nd August 2012 Abstract: Earias vittella is a major lepidopteron pest of cotton in Pakistan and it causes heavy infestation in cotton crop. Present study of biology of Earias vittella carried out in the laboratory under controlled conditions at different temperatures (27, 31 and 35±1°C). E. vittella was reared on its natural diet cotton shoots, flowers and bolls. Highest mortality recorded in the first larval instars and Egg, 14 % and 10 % respectively; the lowest mortality recorded in the fourth larval instars and pupae 1.2, 1.65%. Total cumulative % of survival recorded 62.85%. Life cycle completed in 23-47 days. Male dies after few days of mating. Present study revealed that temperature played vital role in the development and growth rate of vittella; highest rate was on 35 ±1°C but even then its control is possible if management measures could have taken at first and second larval instars which are relatively more vulnerable than other stages; it was also observed that most strong was the fourth larval stage.
