The tobacco caterpillar, Spodoptera litura, a major pest of soybean in India is under surveillance in all soybean growing areas in Maharashtra in order to issue alerts to farmers and prevent economic losses. In this context, two linear models were fitted to developmental data of S. litura life stages reared on soybean at five constant temperatures viz. 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35°C through laboratory experiments. Optimum temperature for development (Topt) and upper temperature threshold (Tmax) were estimated from three nonlinear models by additionally including developmental response at >35°C. Topt estimates for the total immature development were 34.5°C (Lactin-2), 33.7°C (Briere-1) and 33.2°C (Simplified Beta type function) while Tmax estimates were in the range of 38 to 40°C. Application of a thermodynamic non-linear model (Optim SSI) gave estimate ofintrinsic optimum temperature (Tφ) for development of egg (28.3°C), larva (27.5°C) and pupal stage (30.3°C). The phenology model of S. litura on soybean based on estimated developmental threshold temperatures and thermal constants was validated using available field surveillance data to facilitate informed pest management decisions
