Abstract

Rearing Angoumois grain moths (Sitotroga cerealella) on wheat in 24 separate cages has been more satisfactory than when corn was used. Eight times as many eggs were obtained from wheat moths than from corn moths. Moth extraction is accomplished by a forced draft of air. The parasites are reared in watchglasses in an incubator with the aid of underneath light.
