Thus 5 O. humilis emerged from 2,500 C. capitata pupae after thej had been refrigerated for 9 days at about 26° F. Four lots of 1,200 pupae refrigerated at the same temperature for 5, 6, 7, and 8 days yielded on removal to normal temperatures 30, 32, 8, and 4 Opius. No adult C. capitata emerged from those pupae refrigerated J from 5 to 9 days, but from 1,300 pupae, refrigerated at about 26° F. I for a period of 4 days, 3 adults emerged along with 40 O. humilis. No adult C. capitata emerged from two lots of 1,900 and 4,500 pupae refrigerated for 9 and 10 days, respectively, at 32° F., but 7 and 13, respectively, of O. humilis emerged. From 1,228 pu
