The present investigation entitled “Effect of different host plants on life of Spodoptera litura” was conducted, in order to study the life stages of Spodoptera litura on different hosts. The experiment was conducted during year 2013–2014 in the Laboratory of Toxicology, Department of Entomology, Dr. PDKV, Akola. The Spodoptera litura reared on three host plantsviz., Castor, Soybean, Sunflower influenced biological parameters of Spodoptera litura such as larval period, pupal period and adult longevity in days, respectively, pupal weight (g) and female fecundity (eggs/female) were studied. These all above parametersviz., larval period i.e. 15.23 days, pupal period 9.79 days, pupal weight 0.220 g, adult longevity 6.84 days and female fecundity 419.57 eggs/female recorded maximum on Castor reared host plant followed by sunflower reared host plant (for pupal period i.e. 8.96 days and pupal weight i.e. 0.210 g) followed by soybean host (for adult longevity i.e. 6.29 days and female fecundity 416.89 eggs/female).
