Summary

Hypothenemus hampei (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) poses a significant threat to coffee cultivation worldwide. In Colombia, this pest inflicts substantial damage to coffee crops, resulting in recurring economic losses for coffee growers. This study is dedicated to investigating the biological and reproductive characteristics of H. hampei, with a particular focus on its partial fertility life table, within controlled laboratory conditions. The research spans three constant temperatures—20°C, 25°C, and 30±1°C—using Coffea arabica var. Tabi as the test subject. The coffee berry borer (CBB) completed its life cycle (egg-adult) within the temperature range of 20°C to 30°C. Notably, at a temperature of 25°C, the CBB exhibited the most favorable outcomes, with the highest values recorded for the net reproductive rate (19.5), intrinsic growth rate (0.08), and percentage of egg-adult survival (87%). These values significantly surpassed those observed at the other two temperature settings. Understanding the biological and reproductive behavior of the coffee berry borer across different coffee genotypes used by Colombian coffee growers can offer valuable insights for optimizing integrated pest management strategies.
