Abstract: Mean life tables for two generations of Lepidosaphes salicina Bersch., a main pest of shelter-forests in North China, are compiled by statiscal method. The unhatching rate of these two generations at egg stage is 66.5 and 36.0%, and their mortality at fixed nymph stage is 28.0 and 32.7% respectively. The predation rate of 2nd instat nymph by Hemisarcoptes malus, an important natural control agent, is 36.3 and 41.6%, and the parasition rate of female adult by Aphytis procliaus is 2.2 and 7.2% respectively. The population fluctuation trend index(Ⅰ) for these two generations is respectively 1.12 and 1.26.
