The identification and diagnosis of insect pest can best be strengthen through an examination of the arrangement of various setae and punctures of different body segments. In the current study, the cephalic region and other body segments (thoracic, abdominal) of the last instar caterpillar of Pyrausta bambucivora Moore (Crambidae) have been examined thoroughly and contingent the occurrence of 17 tactile setae, 4 proprioceptors and 10 pores on each half of the head.Keywords

Earlier studies on identification of Galleria mellonella emphasized mainly on characterization of wing venation and maculation, larval or pupal morphology and other taxonomic characters such as male and female genitalia. The larval identification and diagnostic characters of pest species can best be strengthen through diagnosis of the setal arrangement and position of punctures present of different larval body segments. The cephalic region and all the bodily segments such as thoracic, abdominal etc of the last instar larva of Greater waxmoth, Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus) belonging to family (Pyralidae) have been examined along with some biological aspects.Keywords
