Life history response of female Mediterranean fruit flies, Ceratitis capitata, to periods of host deprivation

Female medflies were subjected to four different patterns of host deprivation at each of three levels for a 24‐day period. Treatments ranged from host absence 8 days post‐eclosion to host absence 2 out of 3 days. Survival was recorded daily and egg production was recorded on the days in which hosts were present.
