Abstract

Copris tripartitus Waterhouse is a coprophagus insect which enhances the soil fertility as conveying dung into the soil. We compared preimaginal development, mortality, and size of C. tripartitus at various temperature condition (15, 17.5, 20, 25, 27.5, 30). Total preimaginal periods ranged from 118.0d at $17.5^{\circ}C$ to 49.3d at $27.5^{\circ}C$. Development threshold temperature (DT) and total effective temperature for the development of egg, larva, pupa and for complete development (egg to emergence) were 12.1, 11.2, 12.1 and $9.2^{\circ}C$ and 82.7, 462.0, 225.7 and 947.2 degree days, respectively. The mortality of egg and larva was the lowest at $25^{\circ}C$. The optimum temperature for hatchability and on the development of C. tripartitus was estimated to the $25^{\circ}C$.

토양의 비옥도를 높여주는 분식성 곤충으로써 우리나라에 서식하고 있는 애기뿔소똥구리(Copris tripartitus)의 발육생태를 각 온도에서 관찰하였다. 대량증식 및 환경변화 모델 적용을 위해 15, 17.5, 20, 25, 27.5 및 $30^{\circ}C$(16L:8D)에서 발육실험을 한 결과 알에서 우화까지의 발육기간은 $17.5^{\circ}C$에서 118.0일이고, $27.5^{\circ}C$에서는 49.3일이었다. 온도가 높을수록 짧은 발육기간을 보였으며, 알, 유충, 용, 알에서 우화까지의 발육영점온도와 유효적산온도는 각각 12.1, 11.2, 12.1, $9.2^{\circ}C$, 그리고 82.7, 462.0, 225.7, 947.2일도이었다. 난 및 유충의 발육단계에서 사망률은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 가장 낮게 나타나 애기뿔소똥구리의 성장에 적합한 온도는 $25^{\circ}C$이었다.
