Abstract:
:The period between oviposition and the start of hatching varied from about 17 weeks at 3°C to about 1 week at 22°C, and the length of the hatching period varied from about 34 days at 3°C to about 3 days at 22°C. Regression equations are provided to estimate the lengths of both periods at all temperatures between 3°C and 22°C.
