Abstract
The flight activity of the diamondback moth was recorded during several days after emergence using an electric actogram. The percentage of active moths was low in both males and females, and the flight activity of the diamondback moth was low, although a few moths were very active. Flight activity was higher in the dark period than in the light period. It was low on the days of emergence, and became maximum on the following day without adult food or several days after emergence when adult food was available.
