| Abstract: | Life tables were constructed for the predatory mite,Proctolaelaps deleoni, fed on the free-living nematodeRhabditis scanica at 20, 25, 28, 30 and 32°C. The intrinsic rate of increase (r
m
) and the net reproduction rate (R
o
) reach maximum values at 28°C. Mean generation time (t
g
) decreases with increasing temperature reaching its lowest value at 32°C. |
