Abstract

This study was carried out to obtain information about a several environmental factors influencing on the bionomical characteristics of Protaetia brevitarsis and Allomyrina dichotoma, which have been used for an important traditional medicinal stuffs. The moisture contents of humus affected the oviposition of P. brevitarsis and A. dichotoma, showing a suitable condition in range of $65{\sim}75%$. Very high or very low moisture condition in humus decreased the egg laying of P. brevitarsis and A. dichotoma, Also, moisture condition of humus was an important factor influencing on the egg and larval survival, egg developmental period, and feeding activity of P. brevitarsis and A. dichotoma.

우리나라에서 한약재로 활용되고 있는 흰점박이꽃무지(Protaetia brevitarsis)와 장수풍뎅이(Allomyrina dichotoma)의 산란과 발육에 관여하는 환경요인을 밝히고자 본 시험을 실시하였다. 부엽토수분함량은 두 종 모두에서 과습이나 과습은 산란을 저하시켰고 산란 시 최적의 수분함량은 $65{\sim}75%$로 추정되었다. 부엽토 수분함량은 흰점박이꽃무지와 장수풍뎅이의 알 및 유충의 생존율과 발육기간, 그리고 유충의 섭식활동에 크게 영향을 주는 것으로 이들의 생육에 관여하는 가장 중요한 요인이었다.
