How and Where Can You Find Mythimna martoni at Different Life Stages
Egg Mythimna martoni eggs are often laid on host plants. To find them, inspect the leaves of potential host plants looking for small clusters or rows of tiny eggs.
Larva Larvae of mythimna martoni can be found on or near their food plants. Look for signs of feeding such as chewed leaves or frass (larval droppings), and carefully inspect plants, both on the underside and upper side of leaves.
Pupal Mythimna martoni pupae may be buried in the ground or hidden in leaf litter. Gently sift through the soil or leaf litter around the host plants where larvae were found.
Adult Adult mythimna martoni are attracted to light, so using a light trap at night is an effective way to locate them. They can also be found resting on the trunks of trees or the ground during the day.

Hurt Plant

Mythimna martoni inflicts harm on a range of grass species by consuming their tissues. This feeding activity results in visible lesions on leaves and stems, which can hinder photosynthesis and nutrient transport, weakening the plants and potentially leading to stunted growth or even the death of the plant if the damage is severe.
