Life Cycle of Enoplops scapha
Egg Upon hatching, the enoplops scapha begins as an egg which is typically oval and laid in clusters. The eggs vary in color but usually match the plant they are laid on for camouflage.
Nymph The nymph of enoplops scapha closely resembles the adults but lacks fully developed wings and reproductive organs. These stages are usually smaller and undergo several moults, growing larger with each one.
Adult Adult enoplops scaphas showcase fully developed wings, darker and more pronounced coloration, and functional reproductive systems. They are larger, more mobile, and engage actively in reproduction.

Habitat Preferences of Enoplops scapha Through Different Life Stages
During the egg stage, enoplops scapha can be located on the underside of leaves or stems of host plants, often in a grid pattern. Nymphs tend to remain on the host plants, camouflaged and feeding on plant juices. As they grow, they are likely to disperse to various parts of the plant, typically staying on the underside of leaves or along stems. The adult enoplops scapha, however, may travel further, particularly during mating season, so a search for them would extend to neighboring plants and even nearby areas where they might relocate to seek new food sources.

How and Where Can You Find Enoplops scapha at Different Life Stages
Egg Eggs of enoplops scapha are usually laid on the underside of leaves. Carefully inspect the leaves of plants, especially their host plants, for small clusters of eggs.
Nymph Enoplops scapha nymphs undergo incomplete metamorphosis and can be found on or near their host plants. Look for them by gently inspecting the leaves and stems of plants for small, often colorfully patterned insects.
Adult Adult enoplops scapha may be found on the host plants as well, but are more mobile and visible. They can be spotted by looking for larger insects resting on the foliage, or in the case of males, by listening for their distinctive mating calls.

Hurt Plant

When enoplops scapha feeds on its host plants, it primarily targets stems and leaves. The insect's chewing of plant tissues leads to visible damages where bites and lesions may appear. This feeding behavior disrupts the plant's ability to transport nutrients and water, stunting growth and potentially leading to reduced vigor and productivity.
