Hilgardia, 1980, vol. 48, issue 4

Abstract: A model of the flight phenology of the beet armyworm (Spodoptera exigua Hübner) was constructed using a combination of laboratory and field experimentation. The model incorporates the following relationships: 1) developmental rates of immature stages as linear functions of temperature, 2) age-dependent immature mortality rates, 3) age-dependent oviposition rates, 4) age and temperature-dependent adult mortality rates, and 5) adult flight activity as a function of temperature.
