%X The experiment was performed to determine the viability of the Trichogrammatoidea bactrae (Trichogrammatidae: Hymenoptera) pupae, after being held, at three different temperatures (10, 12 & 14  C) for 80, 100 and 120 days in complete darkness with 45% relative humidity. Temperature 10  C with 80 days holding time is the best combination for the storage of the pupae of the parasitoid. Under the said environmental conditions >53% adult emergence was obtained when the stored pupae were exposed to normal physical conditions (28  C, 55% relative humidity and 11/13 light/dark photoperiod).
