Abstract
Egg-collection equipment for Liriomyza leafminers was designed using a small glass tube with a glucose solution supported between two thin films. Adult female Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess), which were previously reared on kidney bean for 2–4 days, laid abundant eggs in 5 or 10% glucose solutions. Hatchability of the eggs in the solutions was greater than 80%. The equipment was used successfully to collect eggs from another leafminer species, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard.
