Abstract

The eggs were laid on the underside of the leaf of Carex shimidzensis Franch. et Saw. at the height of about 17.4cm above the surface of the water. The egg-batch was light yellowish brown with brown color on the upper end of each egg and elongated in shape with 1 layer of eggs consisting of about 241 eggs. One female was observed to lay eggs at around 2 : 00 P.M., taking 78min to complete one egg-batch of 219 eggs. Hanging posture for oviposition was taken with its head directing slightly upwards.
