Diagnosis and recording of dental caries and treatment needs were done according to the criteria of WHO (1987). Results: The percentage of dental caries was (80.8%) of the total sample. The dmfs value was higher among boys compared to girls with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).The dmfs value among 5 years old children were found to be higher than children aged 4 years with statistically highly significant difference (P< 0.01). The higher percentage of examined children was in need of one surface filling (71.6%) followed by those in need of preventive or fissure sealant (61.3%).

The study consisted reproductive and morphological characteristies such as size , weight and length of the body . The result showed that the highest population density of P. scaber was 1120 individual/m2 in September 2003 and less density 403 ind/m2 in February 2004. The density was generally high in Spring and Autumn, low in Summer and Winter months.An increase of the sexual ratio appear in the females number compared to males number (p < 0.05) during most of year.
