Objective:To evaluate the pesticidal activity of antifeedant,oviposition deterrent,ovicidal and larvicidal activities of benzene,dichloromethane,diethylether,ethylacetate and methanol extracts of Rivina humilis at different concentrations against agricultural polyphagous pest Spodoptera litura(Lepidoptera:Noctuidae)(***).Methods:Antifeedant activities of the selected plant extract were studied as described by Isman et al.(1990),with slight *** oviposition deterrent activity,ten pairs of(adult moths)*** were subjected in five *** 48 h,the numbers of eggs masses laid on treated and control leaves were recorded and the percentage of oviposition deterrence was *** ovicidal activity was determined against the eggs of *** five early fourth instar larvae of *** were exposed to various concentrations and was assayed by using the protocol of Abbott’s formula(1925);the 24 h LC_(50)values of the Rivina humilis leaf extract was determined by probit ***:All the extracts showed moderate antifeedant activitiy;however,significant antifeedant,ovicidal,oviposition deterrent and larvicidal activities were observed in methanol ***:This study showed that the selected plant can be a potent source of natural antifeedant,oviposition deterrent,ovicidal and larvicidal activities against field pest ***.
