| Abstract: |
| In order to investigate the effects of cyantraniliprole on the behavior and lethality of the worker
ants of Solenopsis invicta，cyantraniliprole solutions with the concentrations of 1 mg/L and 5 mg/L were used for the
experiments. Lethal effect of cyantraniliprole on Solenopsis invicta was investigated by water tube method. The result
showed that after 12 hours of treatment，corrected mortality rates of the worker ants were 34.74% and 62.82% at
the extract concentration of 1 mg/L and 5 mg/L respectively，which were higher than that of the mortality of control
（16.67%）. Treated by 0 mg/L，1 mg/L and 5 mg/L for 12 hours，the corrected grabbing rates were 80.00%，
68.05% and 30.43%，respectively the corrected climbing rates were 80.00%，58.45% and 30.38%，the corrected
walking rates were 91.67%，70.97% and 0，the walking speed were 2.07 cm/s，1.07 cm/s and 0，respectively
the corrected aggregation rates were 92.86%，86.35% and 39.40%，respectively. These results indicate that
cyantraniliprole possesses lethal effect against the worker ants of Solenopsis invicta under indoor conditions，which
can inhibit behaviorial function of the worker ants of Solenopsis. Cyantraniliprole is a promising chemical ageut against
Solenopsis invicta become the new chemical agent to control Solenopsis invicta. |
