Abstract

Green lacewings (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) are important beneficial insects that can be raised on artificial diets for culturing experimental lines. An encapsulation method for embedding a core material within a sealed shell to prevent evaporation and biological contamination is crucial for providing food to these predatory insects.
