THE UTILISATION OF FOOD BY THE ADULT FEMALE DESERT LOCUST, SCHISTOCERCA GREGARIA

Food utilisation has been estimated in the adult female desert locust by measurements of the weight of food ingested, the weight of faeces produced and the increase in body‐weight. More food is eaten during somatic growth than during the first gonotrophic cycle; moreover, bran is eaten in preference to lettuce during this period of intense feeding.
