Laboratory study was conducted to assess the development of Chrysoperla scelestes on the eggs of Corcyra cephalonica obtained from sorghum, sorghum + green gram, sorghum + soybean, bajra, bajra + greengram and bajra+ soybean medium. Sorghum and bajra was the most promising medium which favourably influenced the incubation period, duration of different larval instars, adult emergence percentage, longevity of male and female, fecundity, sex ratio and growth index of C. scelestes.
