The duration of the immature stages and adult stage were determined. Immature stages of C. negevi consumed in total an average of 27 E. orientalis and 34 T. urticae, whereas each day throughout her life, the adult female consumed an average of 11 of E. orientalis and T. urticae. While feeding on these prey, C. negevi laid 1.3 and 1.0 eggs per day. The number of eggs deposited per day increased (3.3 eggs/female/day) when fed on eriophyid mites. Females neither fed nor reproduced on liquid nutrients.
