Durante a escotofase, fêmeas de Mocis latipes (Guenée) pousaram em superfícies verticais e iniciaram o comportamento de chamamento aos machos, abaixando levemente as asas, levantando o final do abdômen e protraindo o ovipositor. As fêmeas começaram a chamar a partir do 2º dia de idade, sendo o pico de chamamento no 4º dia. O início do chamamento aconteceu na 2ª hora da escotofase e o máximo de indivíduos chamando aconteceu na 3ªhora. As proporções entre os componentes (Z,Z,Z)-3,6,9-heneicosatrieno e o (Z,Z)-6,9-heneicosadieno de 70:30 e 60:40 mostraram ser as mais atrativas aos machos de M. latipes em túnel-de-vento. Os machos iniciaram a resposta às fêmeas 24 h após a emergência, na 3ª hora da escotofase. São descritas as seqüências de corte e cópula e apresentada uma análise comparativa do comportamento reprodutivo de M. latipes e Anticarsia gemmatalis (Hübner).

Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV) is being used in Brazil as a biological insecticide. Host plant resistance of soybean to insects is been searched for and some authors have mentioned the interference of plant chemistry in virus efficiency. Interactions among soybean extracts of genotypes used as a source of resistance (PI 274454 and PI 227687) with different AgMNPV concentrations in populations of A. geatalis susceptible (S) and resistant (R) to the virus were studied at laboratory condition. Higher mortality was observed when larvae fed on diets with extracts of the soybean genotypes compared with those fed on a plain diet (control). The mean lethal concentration (LC50) was reduced about 10 ties in the S-population fed on diets containing PI 274454 extracts and different concentrations of AgMNPV, compared to control diet. Additive effect was predominantly observed when larvae fed on diets with extracts of soybean genotypes (PI 274454 and PI 227687) and AgMNPV for both larval populations. The pupal weight was negatively influenced by the extracts incorporated to the diets compared to control, for both larval populations, notably for R-population. The results suggest that, in general, leaf extracts of soybean resistant genotype did not cause any harmful effect on virus efficiency.
