Photoperiodic clock of diapause termination in Pseudopidorus fasciata (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae)

Photoperiodic control of diapause termination was systematically investigated in Pseudopidorus fasciata. In 24 h light-dark cycles, the rate of diapause termination in this species depended on photoperiod. The critical night length (CNL) for diapause termination was 10 h, 0.5 h shorter than that for...
