Life Cycle of Mordella frontalis
Egg Laid on or near appropriate food sources, the eggs of mordella frontalis are typically oval and may have a coloration that camouflages them with their surroundings. Incubation period varies before hatching into larvae.
Larva The larvae of mordella frontalis are worm-like, lacking wings and with a soft exoskeleton. Frequently very different in form and diet from adults, they undergo several molts, increasing in size with each molt.
Pupal Mordella frontalis's pupal stage is a time of reorganization during which the insect is immobile and vulnerable. Encased in a pupal shell, it undergoes dramatic transformation, with the development of adult structures like wings.
Adult Emerging from the pupa, the adult mordella frontalis’s development is marked by the presence of wings and functional reproductive organs. The body is fully formed and hardened, and the adult is mobile, focusing on reproduction.

How and Where Can You Find Mordella frontalis at Different Life Stages
Larva Mordella frontalis larvae can typically be found in decaying wood or within the plant material they consume. Searching in rotting logs or under bark may reveal them.
Pupal Mordella frontalis pupae might be located in protective cocoons in the soil or in rotting wood. Gentle excavation close to identified larval feeding grounds might uncover them.
Adult Adult mordella frontalis can be located by checking flowers and foliage where they forage for food and mates. Sweeping a net over vegetation or using a light trap at night can facilitate collection.

Hurt Plant

Mordella frontalis can cause a range of damage from mild to severe, depending on the population size. Both adults and larvae chew on plant tissues such as stems, leaves, and flowers, without discriminating among host plants. The visible consequences include defoliation, stunted growth, and compromised flowering.
