| Abstract | Nowadays, insect control is usually carried out using chemical insecticides, but insect
resistance and other negative side effects have prompted the search for alternatives. Biopesticides
provide a positive alternative to synthetic pesticides because they have low impact
on the environmental, low toxicity to humans and low costs among other advantages. This
research was carried out to evaluate the activity of Parahancornia amapa (Huber) Ducke
(Apocynaceae) lyophilized latex on the post embryonic development of Chrysomya megacephala
(F.) (Diptera: Calliphoridae). Larvae treated with 1.0% latex showed a shorter post
embryonic development period (larval, pupal and newly hatched larvae to adult); whereas
larvae treated with 3.0% latex provoked a prolongation of these periods. Viability (53%) was
also very low at the newly hatched larvae to adult period for larvae treated with 3.0% latex,
indicating that latex from P. amapa at high concentrations could change C. megacephala
post embryonic development. | pt_BR |
