Abstract/Contents:"The effect of an ectoparasitic nematode, Noctuidonema guyanense Remillet & Silvain (Nematoda: Aphelenchoididae), on adult longevity and egg fertility in Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) was studied in the laboratory. Infestation of S. frugiperda was achieved by crossing field-collected, infested moths with virgin, laboratory-reared moths. In 1989-1990, adult longevity of infested male moths was reduced by about 30%, whereas female longevity was reduced by about 15%. Longevity of female moths also was decreased by the nematode in 1991. Survival of field-collected moths was 63% less in infested moths than in noninfested moths 3 days after their confinement in the laboratory. Fecundity for infested and noninfested moths was similar in 1989-1990. However, in 1990, fertility was depressed in female moths by up to 20%. Among insects held under three constant temperature regimes (20, 25, and 30 C) in 1991, egg hatch was affected most at the lowest temperature. This is the first evidence of an ectoparasitic nematode affecting the biology of adult S. frugiperda."
