Fenoxycarb is an insecticide with a juvenile hormone mimicking effect, which disturbs metamorphosis in several insect species, including the neuropteran Chrysoperla carnea. Administration of different doses of fenoxycarb to third instar larvae causes a dose dependent inhibition of metamorphosis and cocoon spinning. When treated within 48 h of the last larval ecdysis, this insect shows a temporary inhibition of metamorphosis and cocoon spinning, which leads to a prolongation of the third larval instar. When treated after 60 h into the last instar, most of larvae were unable to metamorphose and spin a cocoon. Thus, C. carnea is most sensitive to this juvenoid in the period after 60 h into the last larval instar.
