Life Cycle of Giant green slantface
Egg The embryonic giant green slantface resides within an egg, where development begins. The egg is small, typically oval, and often camouflaged. No locomotion or feeding occurs as the insect fully depends on egg yolk for sustenance.
Nymph Upon hatching, the nymph resembles a miniature adult giant green slantface minus wings and reproductive structures. It molts several times, growing larger, gradually developing wing pads. Nymphs are voracious feeders and very active.
Adult Emerging from the final molt, the adult giant green slantface displays functional wings and reproductive organs. The size increases and the body hardens. Adults are highly mobile and focus on mating and laying eggs.

Habitat Preferences of Giant green slantface Through Different Life Stages
Eggs of giant green slantface are often laid in the soil of grassy or weedy areas, so one might search by inspecting the ground in such environments. Nymphs are typically found on or near host plants, as they must feed to grow, requiring one to look among grasses and low vegetation. Adults of giant green slantface share habitats with nymphs but are more mobile and likely to be found higher on plants or even trees, so one should search both the lower and upper parts of plants.

Agricultural Pests

When giant green slantface populations are low, their feeding may result in mild defoliation, mostly unnoticed. With larger populations, severe loss of leaves and stems can occur, leading to significant crop yield reductions. This widespread damage has the potential to threaten food security and economic stability in affected regions.
