Abstract

We examined the influence of 2 natural nutritional environments on the development and survivorship of  Narnia femorata in a greenhouse setting.  Narnia femorata raised on cactus with fruits developed faster than those raised on cactus without fruits, yet no significant difference in survivorship was found between the 2 treatments.
