The black aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch, 1854), leafhopper (Empoasca sp.), and cowpea curculio (Chalcodermus bimaculatus Fiedler, 1936) are importants pests of cowpea in northeast of Brazil, for their direct and indirect effects. The aim of this research was to value the behaviour of cowpea genotypes, in field and greenhouse conditions. Treatments were applied to plants in a randomized complete block design separated in the time. The treatments were disposed in five rows (four linear meters), with 0,8m theyselves, and 0,2m between plants. The samples were realizated, at random, with 3 rows in the experimental unit. Data were transformed using the formule (x + 0,5)1/2, submitted to variance analisys, and means were separated by Tukey test at 5% of error. The evaluations were realizated weekly. The experimental unit consisted of 10 for parcel, from where were quantified the insects, in case of black aphid and leafhopper, and damage in pods for cowpea curculio.
