The pygidial gland secretion of the forest caterpillar hunter, Calosoma (Calosoma) sycophanta: the antimicrobial properties against human pathogens

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2017
Recently, various insect secretions have been tested as possible antimicrobial agents. In beetles, these secretions are essentially products of various exocrine glands, of which particular emphasis is on pygidial glands that are common for the suborder Adephaga.

Histoanatomy of Malpighian tubules and the digestive tract of adult of biocontrol agent Calosoma sycophanta L. (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 2020
Calosoma sycophanta L. is a voracious predatory beetle that feeds on several important lepidopteran pests such as the gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.), the brown-tail moth (Euproctis chrysorrhoea L.) and the pine processionary moths (Thaumetopoea pityocampa). It is mass reared in laboratory breeding and released against forest pests. So, C.

Current Distribution and Historical Range Expansion of Calosoma sycophanta (L.) (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in North America

Journal of Entomological Science, 1999
Since the intentional introduction, release, and establishment of the lymantriid predator, Calosoma sycophanta (L.), in 1906–07 in the vicinity of Boston, MA, its range has continued to expand. Compilation of collection localities, all intentional releases in North America, and museum collection records permitted documentation of spread over time and a

An Artificial Diet for Larvae of Calosoma sycophanta (Coleoptera: Carabidae), a Gypsy Moth (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) Predator

Journal of Entomological Science, 1998
A newly-developed larval diet for Calosoma sycophanta L. consists of beef liver and chicken meat. Larvae reared individually on this diet develop at about the same rate and have the same survival as those fed gypsy moth pupae, Lymantria dispar L., the usual prey of the beetle. However, adults of diet-reared larvae were significantly smaller than adults

Adult feeding affects fecundity of the predator,Calosoma sycophanta (Col.: Carabidae)

Entomophaga, 1993
Calosoma sycophanta L. adults were fed either gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) larvae or split grapes for set periods of time while their reproduction was monitored. Few female beetles reproduced unless fed gypsy moth larvae during the first week after they ended hibernation.

Temperature-Based Models of Development for the Gypsy Moth (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) Predator, Calosoma sycophanta (Coleoptera: Carahidae)

Environmental Entomology, 1989
Three models (linear, third-degree polynomial, and one based on enzyme kinetics) were used to simulate the dependence of Calosoma sycophanta L. developmental rate on temperature. In conjunction with a model of individual differences in development based on the Weibull distribution, the models were used to predict development of C.

A Teratological Specimen Of Calosoma sycophanta (L.) (Coleoptera, Carabidae) From Connecticut, U.S.A

Entomological News, 2008
Teratological specimens of Coleoptera are rarely observed. The anomalous morphology of such specimens presumably reduces their chances of survival, making them uncommon in the environment. A classification and suggested terminology for describing teratological specimens of Coleoptera were published by Balazuc (1948). Publications by Dallas in Argentina
