摘要
Based upon the biotic potential presented by Orius majusculus Rt., it was possible to elucidate the optimal conditions for rearing of this insect. A diet based on eggs of Anagasta kuehniella (Z.) and a sustrate for oviposition constitued by leaves of geranium (Pelargonium peltatum Soland. in Ait.) are adequate for growth and reproduction when temperature is between 15 and 25-degrees-C and photoperiod exceed 14 light for 24 h. An attempt was made as mass production. With little maintenance, minimal space and simple equipment, the mass rearing of this insect is highly satisfactory. Under our rearing conditions, one female yields about 20-adult-offspring in four weeks.
