Dear all

In this year, I have joined a research team focusing on how to rear larvae and moth of durian seed bore (Lepidoptera : Noctuoidae), for example : Mudaria luteileprosa Halloway and Canogethes punctiferalis frequently found durian cultivated in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, to be used for conducting a series of quarantine treatments on fresh durian. In initial steps, we need to collect massively those insects. Unfortunately, what we have seemingly efforted still far away to the target. We would highly appreciate if you could share the information about how to obtain those commercial mass-reared of durian seed bore and their artificial diets. Thank you very much before.

Kindly regards
