Abstract:

Maternal effects of Scleroderma guani bred on Tenebrio molitor , an ectoparasitoid of Saperda populnea (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) had been studied. There was significant difference in pre oviposition period, larval preiod, parasite rate, larval survival rate, the number of oviposition and the number of adult of maternal wasps between the S.guani reared on the T.molitor stored respectively at -9 ℃ for 5,15,25,35 and 45 d and untrated control. However, the affspring derived from the treated S.guani didn't show any significance from the untreated control.

Key words: low temperature storage, Tenebrio molitor, Scleroderma guani, reproduction
