Directional Sensitivity and Mechanical Coupling Dynamics of Campaniform Sensilla During Chordwise Deformations of the Fly Wing [PDF]
, 1992 The complex morphology of an insect campaniform sensillum is responsible for transforming strains of the integument into a displacement of the campaniform dome and subsequently a deformation of the dendritic membrane.

Substrate Preference of Black Soldier Fly Larvae Is Influenced by Rearing History
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 6, Page 477-494, June 2026.BSF larvae were reared under six different conditions: low, medium, or high larval density and on low, medium, and high‐water feeds to investigate feed choice behaviour. Larvae reared under all six conditions preferred substrate colonised by conspecifics. Low‐water feed caused slower larval growth and development.

, 2006 Calliphora vicina Another invasive blowfly species in South Africa is the European species Calliphora vicina Meigen. C. vicina was first recorded in South Africa in 1965, when a specimen was collected in Johannesburg, and again in 1967 and 1969, in Benoni near Johannesburg International Airport.

Evaluating the Molecular Potential and Interpretability of DNA in Historical Spirit Collection Media
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.ABSTRACT Advancements in historical genomics increasingly leverage museum collections to study past ecosystems, species interactions and biodiversity. Formalin‐fixed, ethanol‐preserved specimens, once thought inaccessible to molecular analyses due to DNA degradation, are emerging as valuable genomic resources.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 436-452, May 2026.Hyperspectral proximal sensing was used to characterize the life stages and physiological responses of Diatraea saccharalis and to detect parasitism by Cotesia flavipes. Distinct spectral signatures differentiated eggs, larval instars, pupae, and adults, as well as live, dead, and parasitized larvae.

Comparison of Encoding Properties of Campaniform Sensilla on the Fly Wing [PDF]
, 1990 The wing blade of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria (L.) carries an array of campaniform sensilla which have previously been divided into slowly and rapidly adapting classes based on their responses to step indentations.

The role of visual and mechanosensory cues in structuring forward flight in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2007 It has long been known that many flying insects use visual cues to orient with respect to the wind and to control their groundspeed in the face of varying wind conditions.

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.As the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events are increasing, it is urgently important to understand how organisms respond to and recover from heat stress. Here we extend the existing Thermal Death Time framework to include the antagonistic processes of accumulation and repair of thermal injury, which operate at stressful and permissive ...
