Sexual dimorphism and sex pheromone detection in Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Animal Biology, 2020 Abstract Sexual dimorphism, particularly at the level of sensory and locomotor organs, is usually attributed to sexual selection. Antennae are notably developed in males of species that need to detect a sex pheromone at low concentration or at long distance. In addition to their role in intrasexual selection, antennae can be seen as important ornaments

Impact of Humidity on the Biological Development ofAphidoletes aphidimyza(Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2016 Aphidoletes aphidimyza Rondani (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) is one of the most important predators used in the augmentative biological control of aphids worldwide. However, due to its particular life history, mass rearing A. aphidimyza remains difficult.

Diapause Prevention in Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) by Low-intensity Light
Environmental Entomology, 1986Low-intensity radiation at night prevented diapause in larvae of the predatory midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) under environmental conditions (9:15 [L:D] photoperiod and 2l:l5°C [T:C] thermoperiod) that induced 100% diapause when “night” was dark.

An Attractant of the Aphidophagous Gall Midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza From Honeydew of Aphis gossypii
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2016Many natural enemies of insects use honeydew as a volatile cue to locate hosts or prey, as an oviposition stimulant, and as an arrestant for foraging. The aphidophagous gall midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) has predacious larval stages and can be used to control aphid populations, especially in greenhouses.

Morphology of putative female sex pheromone glands and mating behaviour in Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2002 AbstractAdult emergence period, sex ratio, female calling behaviour, and the risky mating behaviour of A. aphidimyza in spider webs are described. We provide evidence that A. aphidimyza females produce a sex pheromone and attract males, and we give a description of the location and structure of the supposed pheromone producing glands of A.

(2R,7S)-Diacetoxytridecane: Sex Pheromone of the Aphidophagous Gall Midge, Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2004In a recent study, evidence was presented that females of the aphidophagous midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondi) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) release a sex pheromone to attract mates. Our objectives were to identify and bioassay the pheromone. Coupled gas chromatographic-electroantennographic detection(GC-EAD) analyses of untreated and hydrogenated ...
