| Summary: | The research was carried out in the Laboratory of Entomology of the University of Ciego de Ávila
in the period between May 2003 and January 2004. Adults of the Order Coleoptera, family Scarabaeidae
species Cyclocephala cubana Chap. were collected during the dispersion flight of the scarabs associated to
the pineapple agroecosistem of Ciego de Ávila. Biological particularities and the duration of the states cycle of
were determined under semicontrolled conditions according to Grillo, 2003. Under semicontrolled conditions
the species Cyclocephala cubana Chap. had a period of pre oviposition of 8-10 days; embryonic of 10-14;
stage L1 9-31, and stage L2 of 8-22 days. The fecundity, fertility, appearance, and mortality of this species was
98, 100, 100 and 20 percent respectively. |
