Recognition and duration of larval instars of banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus Germar, in Uganda
Analysis of head capsule widths of banana weevil larvae was carried out to determine the number and recognition of instars. The analysis involved model fitting to frequency distributions of head capsule measurements of laboratory-reared and field-collected larvae. The laboratory population revealed...
