The effects of inoculation method on efficacy of two formulations of Beauveria bassiana strain GHA against Colorado potato beetle larvae were investigated. (potatobeetle.org)
These results suggest that, under dry conditions, potato beetle larvae do not readily acquire an effective dose of conidia from treated foliage and that development of improved application technologies to more effectively target the larvae may ultimately prove more beneficial than development of formulations with greater foliar persistence. (potatobeetle.org)
The larvae quickly gain size as they feed, and are sometimes called sow bugs or potato bugs. (seedmoney.org)
Colorado potato beetle larvae feed heavily on new foliage and flowers, and can strip plants of all leaves when left uncontrolled. (seedmoney.org)
At the end of the last generation in the field, the larvae enter the soil of the potato plots or the environment and develop into pupae and later into adults which can overwinter in the soil. (inra.fr)
Note that several insecticides authorized against aphids are also effective against the Colorado beetle, particularly on young larvae. (inra.fr)
You may also notice golden tortoise beetle larvae in your sweet potatoes (Figures 2, 3). (novascotiavegetableblog.com)

This study tests the hypothesis that the generalist predator Coleomegilla maculata DeGeer causes differential mortality of Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), larvae differing in their degree of genetic adaptation to tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. (ncsu.edu)
Results of a series of laboratory experiments demonstrate that adult C. maculata can cause higher mortality to nonadapted than adapted Colorado potato beetle larvae. (ncsu.edu)
and, in choice situations, the ratio of adapted to nonadapted potato beetle larvae. (ncsu.edu)
Although adult C. maculata have the potential to prey differentially on tomato-adapted and nonadapted Colorado potato beetle larvae in mixed populations, the magnitude of differential predation in a natural setting could be highly variable. (ncsu.edu)
