Evaluations of toxicity, antifeedant, growth-regulatory activity of the methanol extract of Gliricidia sepium leaves were carried out against Dysdercus koenigii Fabr. (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae), Achaea Janata Linn, and Spodoptera litura Fab., (both Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Topical application of 100-300 μg of the extract to different stages of the test insects resulted in dose-dependent effects including larval-pupal intermediates and deformed adults. The highest tested dosage (300 μg/ μl) resulted in reduced survival rate and morphological abnormalities. At certain doses a strong antifeedant activity was evident against the lepidopteran insects.
