Abstract:Autecological features i.e. fecundity, mean weight of eggs and hatchability were investigated during 100 days of culturing individual pairs of 6- and 7-instar groups within T. castaneum cI and T. confusum bIV strains. The groups in both species differ one from another by shorter (6-instar) and longer (7-instar) developments. The 6-instar groups showed higher fecundity, similar mean egg weight and similar hatchability than 7-instar groups. Differences between species were higher than those between 6- and 7-instar groups. T. castaneum cI strain showed higher fecundity, lower individual egg weight and higher hatchability than T. confusum bIV strain.
