Abstract
The effects of providing (a) an artificial honeydew consisting of yeast autolysate, sugar and water in the ratio 4∶7∶10 live prey (eggs ofEphestia kuehniella), and (b) water and life prey, on larval development and survival in the green lacewingChrysoperla carnea were examined. Compared with larvae provided with eggs and water, those given eggs and artificial honeydew were more likely to complete their development and did so significantly more rapidly.
