Abstract
All potential plague populations of the red locust, Nomadacris septemfasciata Serv., are confined to specific regions known as outbreak areas and, for reasons as yet not fully understood, these areas offer favourable conditions for rapid multiplication and survival of this locust. A research programme of the International Red Locust Control Service has been concerned with the reasons why these areas are able to maintain such large populations, as it is hoped that the results may lead to some form of ecological control. As part of the investigation of the locust in relation to its environment, this field study of oviposition and related behaviour was undertaken.
