Abstract

Agrotis fucosa larvae were placed on sawdust of the Japanese cedar spread in plastic boxes, and were fed on an artificial diet consisting mainly of the diet for the pregnant rabbit, kidney beans and water. The population density of the larvae at the sixth instar had to be limited because interferences among individuals reduced the rate of emergence. The laboratory culture was maintained continuously for more than 10 generations.
