Abstract

Pharate adult (adult within the pupal cuticle) diapause was discovered in Barbara colfaxiana (Kft.) and is reported. This phenomenon is uncommon in insect development. It was also shown that both the termination of diapause and the subsequent advancement of pharate adult development can occur at 0 °C.

Résumé

Le présent article porte sur la découverte chez Barbara colfaxiana (Kft.) d'un phénomène rare, une diapause au stade pharaté (stade où l'adulte se trouve à l'intérieur de la cuticule nymphale). De plus, il est démontré que l'achèvement de la diapause et le développement ultérieur peuvent se faire à 0 °C.
