The life cycle completed in 20 .02 and 29.66 days at an average temperature of 21.200 С and 26.600 С оп О. indicum and 28.34 and 20.20 days оп С. siphonanthus food plant respectively. The duration of different stages is highly affected Ьу the temperature. Approximately 9 generations were reared in а уеаг. ER -
