| English abstract | This study aimed to detail the temporal and morphological parameters of the immature stages of Spodoptera albula (Walker 1857) under controlled conditions (25 ± 1°C, 70 ± 10% RH and 14 hour photophase) and to gather information about their larval host plants. For this purpose, a new rearing method and artificial diet was employed and validated. The viability of the egg, larval, pupal and pre-pupal stages was 94.54, 97.33, 93.84 and 92.34%, respectively. The average duration of the egg, larval, pupal and pre-pupal stages was 4.14, 16.37, 1.69, and 9.34 days, respectively. During the larval stage, 80.85% of females and 93.99% of males passed through six and remaining through seven instars, with significant larval protandry. The larvae that developed through six and seven instars exhibited a mean growth rate of 1.58 and 1.48, respectively. Fifty five host plant species belonging to 29 families are listed. The female pupae were significantly larger, exhibiting protogyny. Both the rearing methods as well as the larval diet proved adequate, providing more detailled observations of the biological cycle, especially the larval stage, and resulting in an overall survival of almost 80% |
| Portuguese abstract | Este estudo objetivou detalhar parâmetros biológicos dos estágios imaturos de Spodoptera albula (Walker 1857) em condições controladas (25 ± 1°C, 70 ± 10% UR e fotofase de 14 horas) e reunir informações sobre as plantas hospedeiras de suas larvas. Para tanto foram empregadas e validadas novas metodologias de criação e dieta artificial. A viabilidade das fases de ovo, larva, pré-pupa e pupa foi de 94,54; 97,33; 93,84 e 92,34%, respectivamente. A duração média das fases de ovo, larva, pré-pupa e pupa foi de 4,14; 16,37; 1,69; e 9,34 dias, respectivamente. Na fase de larva observou-se que 80,85% das fêmeas e 93,99% dos machos passaram por seis instares e os demais por sete, com protandria larval significativa. As larvas que passaram por seis e sete instares apresentaram razão média de crescimento de 1,58 e 1,48, respectivamente. Foram relacionadas 55 plantas pertencentes a 29 famílias botânicas. As pupas femininas foram significativamente maiores, observando-se protoginia. Tanto a metodologia de criação quanto a dieta larval mostraram-se adequadas, pois permitiram sobrevivência total de praticamente 80% e um detalhamento muito maior das observações relacionadas ao ciclo biológico, especialmente do estágio larval |
