Abstract

Oecobius templi   O. Pickard-Cambridge (1876), belonging to the family Oecobiidae, was investigated. It possessed 8 and 7 spiderling instars prior to adulthood regarding female and male, respectively. The cotton leafworm Spodoptera larva littoralis, the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae, the stored grain moth Ephestia kuhniella, and other instars were raised on them. Prey consumption for each stage was calculated. Additionally, mating behaviour was reported.
