We use computer programme of Maia et al. (2000) in the software package Lifetable SAS to evaluate treatments (foods) on one predator (coccinellidae) at the same temperature. However, this programme use just one age (egg-adult at one temperature), and now we evaluate one specie's life table on different tempreatures. Exist some SAS programme to do this?
Thanks
You should use the Maia et al. (2000) programme. Each temperature should be considered one treatment, as you did with food. I used Maia et al (2000) to compare aphid Lifetable in different temperatures in my article Article Reproduction and fertility life table of three aphid species...
You can use TWOSEX MSchart computer program (Chi, 2016).

You could also use the software ILCYM (https://research.cip.cgiar.org/confluence/display/ilcym/Home), as in the attached paper. Regards.
