Abstract

Aspectos biológicos de Sternechus subsignatus Boheman (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) foram investigados em lavouras comerciais de soja (Glycine max L.) que adotam o plantio direto, no município de Cruz Alta (RS), durante o período de novembro de 1989 a dezembro de 1991. O inseto mostrou-se univoltino, com uma única geração por ano, desenvolvendo-se em épocas bem definidas: adultos nas plantas de dezembro a março, ovos e larvas nas plantas de dezembro a abril, larvas no solo de fevereiro a novembro e pupas e adultos no solo de setembro a dezembro. O estágio larval, no solo, foi o mais longo do ciclo biológico do inseto. A longevidade de adultos nas plantas foi de 112,5 e 62,9 dias para fêmeas e machos, respectivamente. O número de ovos por fêmea foi de 158,4 e a sua viabilidade foi de 89,9%.<br>Biological aspects of Sternechus subsignatus Boheman (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) were investigated in commercial fields cultivated to soybean (Glycine max L.) under no-tillage system, in Rio Grande do Sul State, from November 1989 to December 1991. S. subsignatus showed one generation a year, with the stages occurring in well defined dates: adults were found form December to March, eggs and larvae in the plants from December to April, larvae in the soil from February to November and pupae and adults in the soil from September to December. The larval stage, in the soil, was the longest period of the life cycle. The duration stage of adults females and males in the plants was 112.5 and 62.9 days, respectivelly. The average number of eggs per female was 158.4 and egg viability was the 89.9%.
