ABSTRACT

Laboratory experiments were conducted to find out the impact of the prey, Clostera fulgurita Walk (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) deprivation period on the feeding behavior and predatory rate of Canthecona furcellata Wolff (Hemiptera : Pentatomidae). Results revealed that prey consuming time, and predatory rate were gradually increased in accordance with the prey deprivation period and this predator could be used for the biological control agent of C. fulgurita. However more studies are necessary to recommend this predator as a biological control agent.
