Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of insect breeding, and in particular to an artificial breeding and reproduction method for Tenebrionidae larvae. Background Art

[0002] Tenebrio molitor is one of the families with the largest number of species, with more than twice the total number of birds in the world. Tenebrio molitor has a very complex diet and is a group that is difficult to study in the entire order of Coleoptera. Insects of different tribes and genera of Tenebrio molitor have different application values. For example: 1. Nutritional value: Tenebrio molitor is a genus of insects called mealworms. It has high nutritional value and ranks first among all kinds of protein feeds for living animals. It is known as the "treasure house of protein feed". It can be used as a protein feed to replace fish bone meal. It contains many constant elements such as potassium, iron, sodium, etc., as well as a variety of trace elements. 2. Medicinal value: The chitin and antimicrobial peptides unique to mealworms have good therapeutic effects in lowering human blood pressure and improving human immunity. They also contain active substances that have special effects on the human body, which can improve human memory, resist fatigue, resist tissue hypoxia, delay aging, lower blood pressure, relieve anemia and other functions. Therefore, mealworms have extremely high edible and health value and can be used as Chinese herbal medicines to treat diseases. In addition, the Northwest region uses scorpion beetles to treat lung diseases and asthma; the Jiangnan area uses red dates, lotus seeds, peanuts, rice and other things to feed foreign insects, which are swallowed alive to nourish the body, called Jiulong insects. Some people use the feces of adults and larvae as detoxifiers or to treat asthma. 3. Ornamental value: Some pseudo-ground beetles distributed in tropical and subtropical areas, such as the tree beetle family and the shining beetle family, have very bright colors, large bodies and strong luster, and various shapes, which have high ornamental value.

[0003] The global classification research on the larvae of Tenebrio spp. lags far behind that of the adults. There are about 3,000 larvae with morphological descriptions worldwide, accounting for only 15% of the world's known adult species; research on the larvae of Tenebrio spp. in China is even weaker, with only 160 species described, accounting for 8.6% of the known adult species in China. The systematic research on the larvae of Tenebrio spp. in my country is extremely unbalanced compared with their adults, and is not even on the same order of magnitude. The main reason is that juvenile specimens are not easy to obtain during the collection process and the breeding process is difficult to establish. There is an urgent need for a method and device for breeding and reproducing Tenebrio spp. larvae to solve this thorny problem, so as to provide technical support for the classification of juvenile Tenebrio spp. and the development and utilization of larval nutritional components.

[0004] At present, when the Tenebrionidae insects are transported after being collected, some wet soil from the collection site is placed at the bottom of a wide-mouth bottle, followed by the larvae, and the bottle is sealed with gauze; indoor larval breeding is usually carried out by adding sand to the container as a breeding tool.

[0005] However, due to cannibalism among larvae above the third instar, insects of different species and ages should be cultured separately. Even if they are of the same species and age, the density should be reduced as much as possible. Older and younger larvae should not be mixed, and adults and larvae should not be mixed. In addition, the breeding process of Tenebrio beetles is easily affected by parasitic mites and parasitic fungi, resulting in a lower survival rate of larvae. Therefore, in order to ensure the survival rate of insects, there are certain requirements for the breeding environment, such as sand humidity and cleanliness, during the breeding process of Tenebrio beetles.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an artificial breeding device for Tenebrionidae larvae, so as to facilitate the classification of Tenebrionidae larvae by species and the isolation and breeding in stages according to the growth cycle, improve the survival rate, and provide sufficient insect sources for the classification of Tenebrionidae larvae and the development and utilization of nutritional components. Summary of the invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method and device for artificially raising and breeding Tenebrionidae larvae, which is used for artificially raising Tenebrionidae larvae, and is convenient for classifying and isolating the Tenebrionidae larvae in stages according to their species and growth cycle. It can control the breeding environment and facilitate timely replacement of sand and soil, thereby protecting the insect growth environment, improving the survival rate of Tenebrionidae larvae in artificial breeding, and facilitating observation of the entire growth process of the larvae to accurately determine their species.

[0008] The present invention provides a method for artificially raising and breeding larvae of Tenebrionidae, comprising the following steps:

[0009] (1) Preliminary preparation: When collecting in the wild, bring the sand from the living environment of the pseudocarids back to the laboratory for artificial breeding. First, sterilize the sand with high temperature to kill the mites in the sand. Then add water to the sand to wet it so that the water content of the sand is 14% to 18% and it can be kneaded into a ball by hand. Set aside;

[0010] (2) Adult egg laying: Add wet sand to the adult breeding container to 3 / 5 of the container height, and then add dry sand to 1 / 5 of the container height to simulate the dry-wet stratification of sand in the natural state, which is conducive to the adult laying eggs at the dry-wet junction. Place mixed feed in the adult breeding container; place the adult Tenebrionidae in the adult breeding container according to the sex ratio in the natural state. When the egg laying reaches a certain amount, select different sieves with different apertures smaller than the short axis length of the eggs according to the size of the eggs of different types of Tenebrionidae to gently sieve the sand, and finally the eggs remain on the sieve;

[0011] (3) Larvae hatching: first add wet sand to 3 / 5 of the height of the container into the incubation and breeding container, then dip a brush into water, tap the side of the egg with the side of the brush tip, then gently tap the brush handle on the upper edge of the incubation and breeding container to make the eggs fall into the incubation and breeding container, and finally add dry sand to 1 / 5 of the height of the container, and wait for the eggs to hatch to form newly hatched larvae;

[0012] (4) Larval rearing: Add wet sand to 4 / 5 of the total height of the larval culture device, and then use a brush to move the newly hatched larvae to the larval culture container according to the method of transferring eggs in step (3) to continue growing. Because the larvae live in the soil, the larval rearing sand needs to be sterilized at high temperature and bran needs to be mixed into the sand for the larvae to eat. Because the larvae have the habit of killing each other, the density is controlled according to the age stage. When the mature larvae reach the pre-pupa stage, they will burrow into the bottom of the container to create a pupal chamber. At this time, it is not easy to shake the container. When the sand is dry, put a round filter paper on the surface of the sand and evenly drip water on the filter paper to maintain humidity.

[0013] Preferably, during the rearing process from step (2) to step (4), if parasitic mites appear, use a harder brush to brush off the parasitic mites on the body surface of the adults of the Tenebrionidae family, or put the adults and larvae into a funnel and rinse them back and forth with dry sand, and replace the sand and container; if parasitic bacteria appear, isolate the infected adults and larvae, and treat the container with high-temperature disinfectant.

[0014] Preferably, during the rearing process from step (2) to step (4), except for the prepupal and pupa stages, the clean sand and container are replaced every ten days.

[0015] Preferably, during the breeding process from step (2) to step (4), the humidity of the sand in the adult breeding container is 16-18%, the humidity of the sand in the hatching breeding container is 14-15%, and the humidity of the sand in the breeding container is 15-16%.

[0016] Preferably, during the feeding process from step (2) to step (4), the ambient temperature is 20 to 25°C.

[0017] Preferably, the temperature of the high temperature disinfection treatment is 100-120°C, and the time of the high temperature disinfection treatment is 24 hours.

[0018] Preferably, the mixed feed includes one or more of bran and alfalfa.

[0019] The present invention also provides an artificial breeding and reproduction device for Tenebrionidae larvae, comprising a breeding mechanism, a humidifying mechanism and a supporting mechanism, wherein:

[0020] The breeding mechanism comprises a breeding container, a water seepage hole is provided at the center of the bottom of the breeding container, a filter screen is provided at the bottom of the breeding container, and a sand layer is provided on the upper side of the filter screen;

[0021] The humidification mechanism comprises a humidification container, the lower part of the breeding container is placed in the humidification container, and a certain amount of water is added to the bottom of the humidification container; the side wall of the humidification container is provided with at least one water adding hole, the water adding hole is detachably connected to a water adding pipe or a hole plug, and the water adding pipe is detachably connected to a water adding funnel;

[0022] The supporting mechanism includes a base, which is provided with a plurality of placement slots, and the humidifying container is placed in the placement slots. Side panels are respectively provided on both sides of the base, and a plurality of slots are provided on the inner sides of the side panels. Light shielding panels can be detachably installed in the slots, and a plurality of air holes are provided on the light shielding panels. Through holes are provided on the side panels, and a water adding pipe is passed through the through holes. The water adding funnel is installed on the outer wall of the side panel and connected to the water adding pipe.

[0023] Preferably, the side wall of the breeding container is provided with an adjusting thread, on which an adjusting screw ring can be detachably mounted, an opening is provided at the upper part of the side wall of the breeding container, on which an insert block can be detachably mounted, and slots are provided on both sides of the insert block, which can be detachably mounted on both sides of the opening.

[0024] Preferably, the light blocking plate includes a straight plate, an L-shaped plate and a U-shaped plate.

[0025] Preferably, a water adding funnel is installed on each of the humidifying containers, a spring is provided in the humidifying container, the upper end of the spring is in contact with the bottom of the breeding container, a benchmark is vertically provided in the middle of the base, side panels are arranged around the base, and a removable mesh is provided on the top of the side panels.

[0026] The working principle of the present invention: the artificial breeding device for Tenebrio larvae of the present invention, when in use, firstly sterilize the breeding container, the humidifying container and the sand with high temperature, then add water to the sand and mix it until it can be just kneaded into a ball by hand, place a filter at the bottom of the breeding container, add the wet sand into the breeding container, lay a layer of dry sand on the upper layer of the wet sand, and put the Tenebrio larvae and food into it for breeding, and the newly laid eggs or newly hatched larvae can be moved into a new breeding device according to the stage. When the humidity of the sand is low, water can be added to the humidifying container, so that the water penetrates into the sand in the breeding container through the seepage hole, and the humidity of the sand is increased. The filter can prevent the sand from flowing out of the seepage hole. In order to facilitate water addition, a water addition hole is set at the bottom of the humidifying container, and it is connected to the water addition funnel through a water addition pipe. Water is added through the water addition funnel, which is not only convenient to operate, but also can accurately control the amount of water added, and control the immersion depth of the bottom of the breeding container in the water, thereby controlling the humidification degree. In order to facilitate batch breeding operations, multiple humidification containers are connected in sequence through water pipes. Using the principle of communicating vessels, multiple humidification containers can be filled with water through one water filling operation, and the same amount of water can be controlled for multiple humidification containers. In actual use, for insects at different growth stages, the humidification containers of the breeding device are not connected, and different sand humidity is controlled according to growth needs. For insects at the same growth stage, the humidification containers of the breeding device are connected to control the same sand humidity. In order to ensure stable operation of the equipment and necessary shading operation, a support mechanism is set to place the humidification container in a prevention groove on the base to prevent accidental tipping, and light shielding plates of different shapes are used for shading according to shading needs to meet the growth needs of insects at different stages. When the sand needs to be replaced, the insects only need to be moved into a new breeding container, and the used breeding container is cleaned and disinfected, and the clean sand is replaced for replacement. It should be noted that the humidity of the sand used for egg hatching should not be too high, otherwise the eggs are easy to rot; new soil should be replaced regularly for moisturizing and sterilization. When using a transparent container to keep the fish away from light, wrap it with dark paper or cloth. When the sand is dry, add absorbent paper on the surface of the sand to maintain humidity.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the artificial breeding device for Tenebrio larvae of the present invention is used for artificial breeding of Tenebrio larvae, and is convenient for classification and staged isolation breeding according to the species and growth cycle of the Tenebrio larvae, can control the breeding environment and facilitate timely replacement of sand and soil, thereby protecting the insect growth environment, improving the survival rate of Tenebrio larvae artificially reared, and facilitating observation of the entire growth process of the larvae to accurately determine their species.
