Resumo em Inglês
A population dynamics study of D. maximus was carried out under laboratory conditions (28 degrees C e 65% +/- 5% U.R.), and the methodology was the same that has been used for rearing these insects. In order to evaluate the population growth rate of this species, during a 24 months period, five colonies started with a couple recently emerged were observed. Each couple (a male and a female) was maintained in a glass container measuring 20 cm of diameter and 20 cm in height with filter paper on the bottom. The insects were monthly feeding with normal mice blood, and at this day the number of eggs, nymphal stages and adults was registered. All graphical representations of the populations growth showed the same shape. It was found that the average of nymphal stage represented 64.3% of the holè population whereas the oviposition curve showed to be inverse to this one (28.57%) a small percentage of adults was found: males 3.85% and females 3.12%. In this study observations on the biological cycle, longevity and fertility rates were also carried out.
