Abstract

Larvae of Neodiprion swainei Midd. were reared to the adult stage under controlled conditions of temperature and photoperiod. The effects of temperature are particularly evident during the larval stage, cocoon spinning, and adult emergence and are also observed through variation in cocoon weight and fecundity. Feeding, fecundity, and diapause are directly related to photoperiod. Larvae eat more when the photophase is long, an effect that is detrimental to the organism because there is a parallel loss of energy expressed in the number of day-degrees required to complete development.

Résumé

La température a des effets marqués sur le développement larvaire, le tissage des cocons, l’émergence des adultes, le poids des cocons et la fécondité de Neodiprion swainei Midd. Les variations de photopériode semblent être en rapport direct avec l’activité nutritive et la fécondité. Les larves se nourrissent davantage lorsque la photophase est longue. Ce phénomène est désavantageux pour l’organisme car il implique qu’il y a une perte parallèle en énergie qui se traduit par un plus grand nombre de degrés-jours nécessaires au développement.
