Abstract:
The experiment on influence of castor pollen as floral feed on the biology of Chrysoperla zastrowi sillemi (Esben-Peterson) studied at AICRP (All India Coordinated Research Project) on Biological Control of Crop Pests, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad reported that longest oviposition duration of 36.6 days, highest female fecundity with 749.8 eggs/female and maximum of 87.0 percent egg hatchability as well as longest adult period of 28.0 days for males and 41.8 days for females were observed when Chrysoperla adults were fed with combination artificial food (Proteinex and glucose) along with 20g flower feed (castor pollen) compared to all the biological characteristics of Chrysoperla adults when fed only with artificial food.
