Elevage, croissance et développement de Phryxe caudata (Diptera, Tachinidae) sur son hôte de substitution Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae) et sur milieu artificiel

摘要

Phryxe caudata, an endoparasitic Tachinid of Thaumetopoea pityocampa was reared in the laboratory on Galleria mellonella for more than 90 generations. A control of the quality of the insects reared in artificial condition has been performed in natural conditions, on the natural host. Biochemical and physiological studies have made possible the in vitro development on artificial media, from egg to last larval instar or from the second larval instar to the adult.
