The pentatomid bug, Canthecona furcellata Wolff. (Hemiptera : Pentatomidae) is predator of many lepidopterous pests. The nymphal period of C. furcellata was 14.1 days and the adult longevity of male and female were 16.8 and 24.7 days respectively. The nymphal period and adult longevity of Canthecona furcellata is long. So they reduce the population of Clostera fulgurita walk (Lepidoptera : Notodontidae) to its regular presence in poplar nurseries and plantations. The fecundity of female bug of C. furcellata with on an average is 317.6 eggs per female. The egg laying capacity of its bug is also good for minimizing the population of C. fulgurita. The size of eggs, pre-copulation, copulation period, duration of fecundity and sex ratio were also studied.
