In vitro effects of juvenile hormone analog on wing disc morphogenesis under ecdysteroid treatment in the female-wingless bagworm moth Eumeta variegata (Insecta: Lepidoptera, Psychidae)

Tissue and Cell, 2011
Female adults of the bagworm moth, Eumeta variegata, lack wings completely, whereas male adults of this species have functional wings. We previously found that ecdysteroid induces apoptotic events in the female wing rudiment of E. variegata in vitro, whereas the male wing discs cultured with 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) underwent apolysis and then cell ...

Female-specific wing degeneration is triggered by ecdysteroid in cultures of wing discs from the bagworm moth, Eumeta variegata (Insecta: Lepidoptera, Psychidae)

Cell and Tissue Research, 2008
Female adults of the bagworm moth, Eumeta variegata, are completely wingless; by contrast, the male adults have functional wings. Sex-specific differences in the development of wing discs appear to arise during the 8th (penultimate) larval instar. We have previously found that the wing discs of female E.

Respiration and cold-hardiness in overwintering eggs of the bagworm moth, Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Lepidoptera: Psychidae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology A, Comparative Physiology, 1987
Abstract 1. 1. Respiration rates of eggs of the bagworm moth, Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Haworth) declined from October until March. Rates increased in the spring with the resumption of embryogenesis. 2. 2. Respiratory Q10 values (2–12°C) varied from 3.2 to 4.5. Lipid was utilized primarily in respiration. 3. 3.

Low parasitism rates in parthenogenetic bagworm moths do not support the parasitoid hypothesis for sex

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2012
AbstractThe parasite hypothesis for sex is one of the many theories that have been suggested to solve the mystery of the widespread occurrence of sex despite its high short‐term costs. It suggests that sexual lineages have an evolutionary advantage over parthenogens because they can frequently generate new genotypes that are temporarily less prone to ...

Biology of a New Panamanian Bagworm Moth (Lepidoptera: Psychidae) with Predatory Larvae, and Eggs Individually Wrapped in Setal Cases

open access: yesAnnals of the Entomological Society of America, 2008
The biology and morphology of all stages of a new species of Psychidae from Panama, Perisceptis carnivora Davis (Lepidoptera: Psychidae), are described. The larvae of this bagworm are unusual in being obligatory predators, feeding on a broad range of living arthropods, including Arachnida, Coleoptera, Homoptera, Hymenoptera, Neuroptera, and Orthoptera.

Hierarchical Perception of Stimuli During Case Construction in the Bagworm Moth Eumeta crameri (Lepidoptera: Psychidae)

Journal of Insect Behavior, 2000
We studied case construction behavior of bagworm moth, Eumeta crameri (Lepidoptera: Psychidac) in the host plant, Acacia nilotica, at two sites. At the time of the study, Site A had 1-year-old A. nilotica saplings only, whereas Site B had full grown trees.

Reisseronia annae sp. nov.—a new parthenogenetic bagworm moth from Poland (Lepidoptera, Psychidae)

Zootaxa, 2017
Reisseronia annae sp. nov. is described from the province of Upper Silesia in southern Poland. The species is similar to its parthenogenetic relatives Reisseronia imielinella Malkiewicz, Sobczyk & Larysz, 2013 and R. gertrudae Sieder, 1962. The diagnosis of other related congeneric species is provided. The habitat and life history is described.
