The effect of varying periods of submersion in water on survival of non-diapausing pupae of Helicoverpa punctigera (Wallengren) and H. armigera (Huebner) was investigated. At 25 degree C the submersion time to kill 50% of pupae was 49 h for H. punctigera and 35 h for H. armigera . Since pupae surviv...

Zusammenfassung:The effect of varying periods of submersion in water on survival of non-diapausing pupae of Helicoverpa punctigera (Wallengren) and H. armigera (Huebner) was investigated. At 25 degree C the submersion time to kill 50% of pupae was 49 h for H. punctigera and 35 h for H. armigera . Since pupae survive relatively long periods under water, drowning may not be an important mortality factor in the field except when prolonged waterlogging occurs.
