The development, survival, and reproduction of Liposcelis paeta Pearman (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae), an important insect pest of stored products, were evaluated at nine constant temperatures (20-40 degrees C). Few insects could complete the development or reproduce at 20 or 40 degrees C. Between 22.5 and 37.5 degrees C, the developmental period from egg to adult varied from 45.4 d at 22.5 degrees C to 11.5 d at 37.5 degrees C. The lower temperature developmental thresholds were estimated at 18.1-21.9 degrees C, and the upper temperature thresholds were 40.4-42.0 degrees C. The percentage of survival from egg to adult was 52.79% at 32.5 degrees C and 18.79% at 22.5 degrees C. After emergence, the adult had a short preoviposition period that ranged from 6.3 d at 22.5 degrees C to 0.8 d at 37.5 degrees C. L. paeta produced the most eggs at 27.5 degrees C and the fewest at 37.5 degrees C. The population reared at 32.5 degrees C had the highest intrinsic rate of increase compared with the other temperatures. Based on our data, the optimal range of temperature for L. paeta population growth was 30-35 degrees C. These data give us better understanding of L. paeta population dynamics, and they can be used to develop effective management strategies for this psocid.

The relationship of devel opmental time and temperature is complex: different developmental stages have different developmental parameters (Lamb et al, 1984), and many factors interact. Therefore, the effect of food and humidity on develop mental rate may be different at different temperatures, and most visible near the optimum temperature (Lamb & Loschiavo, 1981;Hagstrum & Milliken, 1988).…”

Thermoperiods or other daily fluctuations in tem perature create great difficulties for most mathematical descriptions, because the effects of temperature are not simply linear or additive.…”

“…Therefore, many different models that describe the data within acceptable limits can be generated (e.g. Lamb et al, 1984). Consequently, highly transformed data applicable to a single model, even the simple one of equations (1) and (2), usually are less useful in the long run, that is for purposes other than deriving a particular model under discussion, than the original data on sub stage durations.…”

Abstract. Some previous work on arthropod development is insufficiently detailed or incompletely reported. Much of the published information in this area is of limited use for the general analysis of life cycles. These difficulties arise primarily because many experiments do not control fully for the strain of the material (and even its specific identity) nor for rearing conditions, do not ade quately take account of the complexity of life cycles and their stages, or are restricted to only part of the life cycle. For example, 285 such factors as variable numbers of instars, sexual differences, abbreviated or hidden stages and dormancies may mean that the "average durations" reported apply to an unknown mixture of developmental types. Nor are experiments always designed or results reported and analysed in a logical and transparent manner. Undefined terms may obscure what actual developmental intervals were measured. Highly derived developmental or demographic measures may obscure core data. Statistical information may be inade quate. Such pitfalls are reviewed here, suggesting ways to ensure that results on the duration of development are both valid for spe cific studies and more widely useful. General experimental difficulties, recommended background information that should be provided, recommended life-cycle intervals and their terminology, and recommended ways to report numerical and statistical infor mation are briefly summarized in tabular form.

“…The latter, based on a normal distribution, also underestimated the maximum development rate. Recognizing these deÞciencies, Lamb et al (1984) modiÞed the Taylor equation to produce an asymmetrical normal distribution that better described development rates over an expanded temperature range but overestimated the upper temperature threshold; however, it did not provide a satisfactory Þt with our data.…”

Preimaginal Development Response to Constant Temperatures inHypera postica(Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Picking the Best Model

Immature survival and development of alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica (Gyllenhal) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), were examined at 15 constant temperatures ranging from 9 to 37 degrees C. At 9 and 37 degrees C, eggs did not develop. Embryos developed to adulthood between 11.5 and 36 degrees C, although survival was low at both ends of the temperature range. Distribution of development times for all stages of alfalfa weevil were skewed toward longer times mainly at moderate temperatures. Constant proportion of time spent in egg, larva, and pupa indicated rate isomorphy within the range 14-31.5 degrees C. No significant difference was shown between development time of males and females at any of the temperatures tested. Two linear and 23 nonlinear models were fitted to describe development rate of immature stages of H. postica as a function of temperature, as well as estimating the thermal constant and critical temperatures (i.e., T(min), T(opt), and T(max)). There was no statistical difference between the estimated parameters, using Ikemoto and ordinary linear methods. Of the nonlinear models fitted, the Logan-6/Lactin-2, Analytis-3/Briere-2, and Analytis-3/Briere-2 models were found to be the best for modeling development rate of egg, larva, and entire immature stages of H. postica, respectively. Our findings will be incorporated in more efficient phenological models of this pest and its population dynamics.
