Abstract

The oriental chinch bug, Cavelerius saccharivorus OKAJIMA (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) was reared on grasses of maize, Kentucky blue grass, sorghum and sugarcane. Among these four diets, blades of sugarcane were found to be most suitable for the easy and successive rearing of the bug. The bug was reared successively for more than two generations with a 40% emergence in the second generation. It was also observed that females laid fertile eggs on a wax paper surface as well as on sugarcanes.
