Some Aspects on Oviposition Behaviour of Spodoptera exigua (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Spodoptera exigua females oviposit on any host plant offered to them. However, they do show oviposition preference among the host plants. The hierarchy of oviposition preference in the three choice test was reflected in the five choice test. The oviposition hierarchy is shallot > long beans >...
