Abstract

This study was performed to investigate the bionomical characteristics of Protaetia brevitarsis in Korea. The imaginal stage was from in early July and the advent of imagoes was the most frequent in early August. Also few imagoes was entered into the hibernation. The larvae inhibited in humus and the period of larva was all completed in late November. At the stage of the third larva, the larvae entered into the hibernation. The average number of laid eggs was 152, and all periods of each stage - eggs, first, second, third instar larvae and pupa - were shortened in $30^{\circ}C$ than in $25^{\circ}C$. As for the longevity of imagoes, female, reared in individual and in low temperature lived longer than male, in group and in high temperature, respectively.

우리나라에서 약용으로 가장 많이 활용되고 있는 흰점박이꽃무지의 형태와 생육특성에 관하여 조사하였다. 성충은 야외에서 7월 상순 하순부터 출현하였으며 출현빈도가 가장 높은 시기는 8월 상순이었다. 또한 소수의 개체는 성충으로 월동하였다. 유충은 부엽토속에서 서식하며 11월까지는 모두 3령이 되어 월동하였다. 실내에서 암컷 1마리당 평균 152개를 산란하였고, $25^{\circ}C$$30^{\circ}C$에서 사육한 결과 알, 유충, 번데기 기간은 모두 높은 온도에서 발육기간이 짧았다. 성충수명은 암컷이 수컷보다 길었고, 집단사육 시보다는 개별사육 시 길었고, 높은 온도보다는 낮은 온도에서 길었다.
