Larval development of the bamboo borer (Dinoderus minutus Fabricius) using individual rearing method
Detailed information on larval development of the powder-post beetle, Dinoderus minutus, was investigated using individual rearing method under laboratory conditions at 27±2°C and 75±5% relative humidity. Five classes of head capsules were recorded, indicating five moults from first instar to prepup...
