Changes in life‐history traits of the water strider Aquarius paludum in accordance with global warming

Physiological Entomology, 2011
Seasonal records of nymphs of the water strider Aquarius paludum Fabricius (Heteroptera: Gerridae) at a waterway in Kochi prefecture, Japan (33°00′N to 33°30′N), in 2007, show that populations of new generation adults occur four or more times during the year, in mid and late May; late July to

Costs and benefits for water strider ( Aquarius paludum ) females of carrying guarding, reproductive males

Ecological Research, 1998
We describe the mating system of Aquarius paludum insularis based on field observations and test hypotheses about the effects of body size, hunger level and post‐copulatory guarding on reproductive performance.

Skating and diving: Changes in functional morphology of the setal and microtrichial cover during ontogenesis in Aquarius paludum fabricius (Heteroptera, Gerridae)

Journal of Morphology, 2008
AbstractWe examined the morphology of setae and microtrichia in Aquarius paludum during larval development using a scanning electron microscope. We then conducted immersion experiments with larvae and adults in oxygenated and deoxygenated water. The adult water strider body is covered by a pilose double layer consisting of upper long setae (30–80 μm ...

Comparing salinity tolerance in embryonic and larval development of two species of water strider, Aquarius paludum and Gerris latiabdominis (Hemiptera: Gerridae)

Insect Science, 2012
AbstractWater strider Aquarius paludum (Fabricius) is a cosmopolitan species colonizes mainly freshwater but occasionally brackish habitats throughout the Palearctic and Oriental regions. Water strider Gerris latiabdominis (Miyamoto) is a common species in Japan lives in temporary habitats as freshwater paddy fields.

Avoidance of egg parasitism through submerged oviposition by tandem pairs in the water strider, Aquarius paludum insularis (Heteroptera: Gerridae)

Ecological Entomology, 2008
Abstract 1. Females of the water strider Aquarius paludum insularis (Motschulsky) (Heteroptera: Gerridae) carry males on their backs and oviposit under water after copulation. This study focuses on the benefit  A.

Does Population Density Determine the Mating Strategy in Males of the Water Strider Aquarius paludum?

Entomological News, 2018
Mating behavior of a large Aquarius paludum paludum (Fabricius 1794) (Hemiptera: Gerridae: Gerrini) population was investigated on several field surveys during the mating season. Both types of mating behavior known for semi-aquatic true bugs were observed in the studied population: aggressive Type I mating for non-territorial males and unaggressive ...
