This paper deals with the results of the preference test between cabbage and radish for oviposition by the cabbage butterfly. As the test animals, the newly emerged adults grown on the cabbage and radish leaves were employed. The results are summarized as follows : (1) The female butterfly lays eggs most vigorously on the host plant at 2 to 3 days after emergence, but this behavior ceases at about 7 days after emergence (Table 1). (2) Both the adults grown by the cabbage and the radish show the same tendency to prefer radish to cabbage for oviposition (Table II). (3) No decided difference can be found between both strains in the ratios of the numbers of eggs layed on the cabbage and the radish leaves.
