Life history of Forcipita loca (Homoptera: Cicadellidae) on three
graminaceous hosts, with descriptions of the immature stages.
MacRae, TC | Yonke, TR Journal of the Kansas Entomological Society [J. KANS. ENTOMOL.
SOC.]. Vol. 57, no. 1, pp. 69-78. 1984.
The development and fecundity of Forcipita loca was studied in the
laboratory of "Kentucky-31" tall fescue, Kentucky bluegrass and
smooth brome. Nymphal development took 17.5, 16.0, and 16.7 days,
and % nymphal survival as 75.9%, 50.0%, and 39.4%, respectively;
male adult longevity averaged 48.5, 36.8, and 42.7, respectively;
total eggs per female averaged 183.7, 56.8, and 47.5,
respectively. "Kentucky-31" tall fescue was the most suitable host
of the plants tested, smooth brome was the least suitable.
