[Aim] Batracomorphus pandarus Knight is a newly recorded grape pest in China. In order to understand its biological characteristics, field laboratory studies were carried out. [Method] Field investigations using sticky traps and sugar-vinegar mixture for trapping, were combined with laboratory rearing. [Result] The average nymphal developmental duration of each instar was 3.88, 6.31, 5.16, 5.28 and 7.00 d, respectively. The average life expectancy of adults was 9.5 d (♀) and 6.4 d (♂). Field studies showed that eggs overwintered on vines. B. pandarus has 3 generations per year in Manas area. Overwintering eggs began to hatch in late April and developed to adults by late May. The first generation eggs started to hatch in the middle of June and nymph eclosion began in mid-July. The second generations hatched in early August, and continued to develop until the end of October. The adults moved mostly in the evening (21:00-23:00) and in early morning, from 6:00 to 8:00 a.m.. [Conclusion] B. pandarus had 3 generations per year and eggs overwintered. Nymphs had 5 instars and preferred to feed on tender leaves. Adults had strong yellow-taxis and weaker blue-taxis, but were not attracted to sugar-vinegar mixture. The results can provide scientific basis for B. pandarus control, promoting safety in grape production.
