The present study aims to investigate the survival, growth and developmental effects of Ammi visnaga fruit extracts on the destructive desert locust Schistocerca gregaria. Treatment of penultimate instar nymphs with the highest concentration of ethanol, petroleum ether and n-butanol extracts resulted in 50, 70 and 60% nymphicidal activity, respectively. Also, the successfully moulted last instar nymphs suffered a lethal action of all extracts. LC50 values were 21.0, 12.0 and 22.5% of ethanol extract, petroleum ether extract and n-butanol extract, respectively. After treatment of last instar nymph, a dose-dependent course of the nymphicidal activity could not be detected after treatment with ethanol extract but with petroleum ether extract or n-butanol extract. LC50 values 22.3, 20.8 and 22.0% of ethanol extract, petroleum ether extract and n-butanol extract, respectively. With regard to the growth and development, treatment of penultimate instar nymphs with ethanol extract and petroleum ether extract led to pronouncedly prohibited growth. All extracts affected the development. No nymphal-adult intermediates had been formed by ethanol extract or n-butanol extract at 40% concentration. In addition, suppressed developmental rate was caused by ethanol extract but not by other extracts. All A. visnaga extracts prohibited the adult emergence in no certain trend.* Corresponding Author: Karem Ghoneim✉ kar_ghoneim@ yahoo. com
