In the life table study, natural mortality i.e. 2.05, 18.19, 4.85 and 1.98% was observed in younger group larvae, older group larvae, pupal stage and adult stage, during 2019–20 and 1.41, 14.23, 5.25 and 1.76% during 202021, respectively. Generation survival was recorded 0.75 and 0.80% during 2019–20 and 2020–21, respectively, and the trend index value was calculated to the tune of 0.013% during both years.
