The Influence of an Alternate Host Plant on the Fecundity of the Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) 

 -  Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 73(2), p.197-199, 1980 .
<br/><br/> Colorado potato beetles fed foliage of Solatium sarrachoides undergo a slower larval development and sexual maturation than beetles fed S.tuberosum. Females fed S.sarrachoides foliage have a lower fecundity than those fed S. tuberosum foliage.
