Summary Selective lesions in the pars intercerebralis and pars lateralis areas of the brain of the adult Colorado potato beetle were produced by radiofrequency cautery. The effect of these lesions on the corpus allatum activity, determined by the short-term in vitro radiochemical assay, revealed that gland inhibitory centers are located in the pars lateralis.
