Abstract

Larvae of Oraesia emarginata were reared continuously for more than ten generations on artificial diets containing dried powder of Cocculus trilobus and chlorella. Under laboratory conditions, effects of rearing were not significantly different from those of rearing on fresh leaves. Rearing on diets without chlorella resulted in a somehow slower development and mortality was slightly higher. Addition of L-ascorbic acid to diets was necessary for rearing these insects.
