Abstract | ||||
The present work was carried out to make a pilot study of mantis population using mark release recapture technique in El-Fayoum governorate through the year of 2008 to estimate the population density and the biodiversity of some mantis fauna. This study form a nucleus of more extensive studies on mantis ecology which is still not clear and shed the light on the nature of mantis population and some problems facing this beautiful insect in Egypt. | ||||
