The effect of different temperature variations on the life table statistics of Bracon hebetor was observed. Longevity of male parasitoid was shorter than females at all temperature levels taken for experimentation. The progeny sex ratio was female biased at lower temperature variants in comparison to high temperature levels. The net fecundity rate (R0) and total fecundity rate (Rt) were higher at 30

Abstract
The effect of different temperature variations on the life table statistics of Bracon hebetor was observed. Longevity of male parasitoid was shorter than females at all temperature levels taken for experimentation. The progeny sex ratio was female biased at lower temperature variants in comparison to high temperature levels. The net fecundity rate (R0) and total fecundity rate (Rt) were higher at 30
