Underunfedconditions.thecorrespondinglongevitywereonly3.98,3.38and2.92 days. Therewas no significant difference in longevity obserfid when the adult parasitoidswereprovidedwithhosteggsandwithouthosteggsforparasitisation. Toxicity of three insecticides viz., chlorpyriphos (0.1%), monocrotophos(0.04%)andtenvalerate(0.02%)againsttheadultparasitoidswere evaluatedthroughdryfilmtechniqueandleafcontactmethod. Inboththemethods, exposureofadultparasitoidstoinsecticidesresultedin100percentmortality. The median lethal time (LTso) forthese insecticides against C. black/721ml was also workedoutbyfollowingprobitanalysis. TheIsl-(50)valueswererecordedtobe 5.83, 8.63 and 14.01 hours for chlorpyriphos, monocrotophos and fenvalerate respectively.en_US
