The rice leaf folder, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis, is a widespread pest in Assam's rice-growing areas. The pest activity was detected in the rice field of Barpeta district during the month of August, with clear white parallel strips on rice hill. For the study eggs and larvae of rice leaf folder were collecting. Larvae were reared in three replicas; 12 female and 13 males were kept in oviposition cage. The larval length was found to be significantly reduced. The weather condition of Assam may have contributed to the variability in larval length. Understanding the biology of the pest enable the formulation of effective and sustainable control method.
