The present research determined the biological parameters of CBB at 16 °C under laboratory conditions. Development time (egg to adult) was 119.3±1.02 days, with 41% survival, and 20.37 eggs.female-1 for a period of 120 days. The biological aptitude of CBB is negatively affected to 16 °C, when compared with temperatures between 18–28 °C.pdfenOpen AccessCoffee berry borerLife cycleThermal conditionsCafeicultura::Pragas, doenças e plantas daninhasArtigo
