Resumen
The performance of various diets (bovine meat, fishsardine, shrimp, dog faeces, and banana) in Ophyra aenescens development was evaluated. The biology
was studied in an incubator (BOD) at 27±1 oC and 80±10% of RH. The developmental time from larvae
to adult, the developmental time and viability of larvae and pupae, the weight of pupae as well as the sex
ratio of the emerging adults were also determined. Beef and shrimp were the more efficient diets for
rearing O. aenescens.
