An ultrasonic monitoring system was developed for exploring the life history of Callosobruchus maculatus that inhabits beans. Callosobruchus maculatus only feeds before eclosion and the demand for food is different in every life stage. The feeding process cracks bean texture fibers and produces feeble ultrasound. Hence the life history of an inhabitant can be explored through spying on the feed-ing cracks. The developed ultrasonic monitoring system consists of a delicate electronic signal condi-tioning module which amplifies, filters, and transforms a biting crack into a square pulse; A computer equipped with software developed inhouse acquired biting pulses and displayed the life history. Ac-quired data was stored for off-line analysis. The system has been successfully applied to exploration of the life histories of Callosobruchus maculatus that inhabit Azuki beans and mung beans.
