Abstract

During autumn-winter 2020-2021, leaf petioles of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) with larvae and pupae of clover stem borer, Languria mozardi Latreille, 1807 (Coleoptera: Languriidae), were collected at the Municipality of Ébano, San Luis Potosí, Mexico. A large percentage (70.8 to 92%) of specimens collected completed larval and pupal stages and emerged as adults in laboratory conditions, showing that satisfactorily completed its life cycle in a soybean plant, a potential host for the pest in Mexico.
