The effects of temperature on larval development and the timing of pupation in the carpenter moth, Cossus insularis (Staudinger) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) were examined by artificial rearing under different temperatures and the same photoperiod (15L:9D). Although C. insularis pupated and emerged at 20, 25, and 30 °C, the pupation rate was lower at 20 °C than at 25 and 30 °C. These results suggest that the optimum temperature range for preadult development is 25–30 °C. The duration of larval development was about 260 days for the first pupation group at 25 and 30 °C, and at least 600 days at 20 °C. Therefore, the C. insularis generation time was 2 years or more, as the total effective temperature for development from hatching to the pupal stage was unlikely to be reached within 1 year in Tokushima Prefecture. The second group pupated at 25 °C, about 200 days after the first group. This periodicity of pupation was likely due to the free-running period of the circannual rhythm. Furthermore, although only the first group pupated at 30 °C, the peak was almost synchronous with the first group at 25 °C. These results indicate that the timing of the first pupation group in C. insularis is temperature compensated. Therefore we propose that the presence of an endogenous rhythm during the development of C. insularis is evidence for a circannual rhythm related to the timing of pupation.
