Pupal production and larval survival rate registered within three days from the beginning of pupation (24, 48 and 72 hr) resulting from varying larval densities.

Different letters represent statistically significant difference among means with P<0.05 level (GLM with Tukey's post-hoc pairwise comparisons). Parentheses enclose standard errors of each mean value. EXP = experiment number; SET = rearing method; T°C = water temperature; DIET = larval diet; L/ML = larval density; N = replicates number. NP = pupae produced; %M = percentage of males in the pupal collection; LARVAL SURVIVAL = larval survival rate at 72 h from pupation onset.
