Abstract
The wasp beetle , Chloropharus varius Mull. (Coleoptera: cerambycidae ) is a harmful! pest in peach orchards in Egypt. Larvae attack trunks and branches to live and feed inside the wood causing them to be broken and die. The behaviour and duration of each stage with the total life cycle and annual generations were studied. The egg , larval, pupal and adult stages with the total life cycle and annual generations were. The egg. , larval, pupal and adult stages lasted 5 - 8, 272 - 339 , 8-19 and 10 - 27 days , respectively. The pre-oviposition , oviposition and post oviposition periods were 6 - 9 , 4 - 11 and 0 - 3 days, respectively. The female laid 28 - 79 days. The total life cycle was completed in 298359 days indicating that the insect might have one generation per year.
