Survivorship of adult Tribolium placed upon a starvation diet at various ages. From Table VII it is evident that there exist significant differences between each two mean values except in the case of groups (a) and (&), which is only db days ( X P. E.). This difference, though statistically not certainly significant, points to a better survivor- ship of 20-day-old adults than newly emerged adults when both are subjected to starvation. The beetles of the two higher age groups all.
