Development and reproductive performance of Brontocoris tabidus (Signoret) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) fed with Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae) larvae was evaluated. Duration of the nymphal phase of this predator was 31.2 days, with a 44.1% survival rate. Preoviposition and egg incubation periods and number of eggs/egg mass were 8.14 days, 5.6 days, and 45.4, respectively. B. tabidus presented 44.7% egg viability. Female longevity of this predator was 18.4 days. Results are discussed based on this prey use in mass rearing and maintenance of colonies of B. tabidus under laboratory conditions.
评估了以家蝇（双翅目：蝇科）幼虫为食的塔氏巨蝽（西尼奥雷）（半翅目：蝽科）的发育和繁殖性能。这种捕食者若虫期持续31.2天，存活率为44.1%。产卵前期、卵孵化期和每卵块卵数分别为8.14天、5.6天和45.4。塔氏巨蝽的卵活力为44.7%。这种捕食者雌虫寿命为18.4天。基于在实验室条件下大规模饲养和维持塔氏巨蝽种群时对这种猎物的利用情况对结果进行了讨论。
