Abstract

The occurrence of oviposition and early larval instars is greatest on the lower part of the tobacco plant in association with "lugs" and "cutters". The later and more damaging larval instars tend to move up into the commercially valuable "leaf" region.
Pupation occurs on the plant, with a small proportion in positions on or near the ground.
