“…The relatively high egg viability (Table 1) is consistent with studies reported in the literature for S. frugiperda (e.g., Luginbill, 1928;Leiderman & Sauer, 1953;Busato et al, 2008;Milano, Berti Filho, Parra, & Cônsoli, 2008) and other species from the same genus (e.g., Sadek & Anderson, 2007;Montezano et al, 2013aMontezano et al, , 2014bMontezano et al, , 2015b. The egg incubation period of S. frugiperda ranged from two to three days (Table 1) and was similar to other reports for S. frugiperda reared under similar temperatures and conditions (e.g., Hynes, 1942;Veloso, Parra, & Nakano, 1983;Nieto-Hernández & Llanderal-Cázares, 1982;Machado, Giannotti, & Oliveira, 1985;Clavijo, Fernández, Ramírez, Delgado, & Lathullerie, 1991;Rizzo & La Rossa, 1992;Valverde, Toledo, & Popich, 1995;Santos, Redaelli, Diefenbach, & Efrom, 2004;Busato et al, 2005). This study also shows that the egg incubation period for S. frugiperda is shorter than the one observed for S. albula, S. cosmioides, S. dolichos and S. eridania reared under the same conditions (Montezano et al, 2013a(Montezano et al, , 2014b(Montezano et al, , 2015b).…”
