The results obtained are as follows. 1. The black-back Prominent has three to four generations in a year depending on the ecological conditions. The first adult appears from the middle of May to early June. 2. The average longevities of aduts were 5.8 days for the male and 5.9 days for female. 3. The period of eggs were about 4 days. 4. The larval period was about 17 2 days. 5. The pupal period was about 5 to 8 days. 6. The width of the head capsule ranged from 0.37mm for the 1st instar to 2.45mm for the last instar. 7. The larvae fed $95cm^2$ for the female and $60cm^2$ for the male in the laboratory condition. 8. The estimated number of the frass evacuated by the larvae were 682 in the laboratory and 663 in the field. 9. The sizes of the frass varied from 0.11mm to 2.46mm in length and 0,05mm to 2.92mm in diameter according to the larval instars. 10. The number of eggs in ovary were about 400. 11. This insect overwinters as a young larva.
