| Miêu tả: | Introduction: The high nutritional value of insects has led to the consideration of their massive production to complement the production of animal protein. In Costa Rica, the importation of the Eurasian “house cricket”, Acheta domesticus, for protein production, is not legal for lack of a study of its invasive potential. Objective: To analyze the invasive potential of A. domesticus and to propose a protocol for the required study. Methods: We analyzed the ecological requirements of A. domesticus in the ecological categories called “Holdridge life zones” using the Costa Rican cricket Anurogryllus muticus as a model. Results: Only three Costa Rican life zones can be considered viable for A. domesticus. Conclusions: A. domesticus is unlikely to survive in the field in Costa Rica. Here we present a detailed protocol for a formal study leading to legal importation of the species. |
