	abstract = {A population of Clitostethus arcuatus (Rossi), originating in Israel, was imported into California in 1989. Laboratory studies at three temperatures (21.1, 28.2, 32.2°C) using Siphoninus phillyreae (Haliday) as prey indicated maximum developmental rates, survival, and fertility at 28.2°C. At 28.2°C, development from egg to adult required a mean of 15.6 d, egg-to-adult survival was 78\%, sex ratio of surviving progeny was 1:1, females lived an average of 82 d and laid an average of 202 eggs. Developmental rates and fertility were slightly lower and survival was similar at 21.1°C. Development was slower and survival and fertility were reduced substantially at 32.2°C.},
