Bartonella quintana in Cimex hemipterus, Rwanda [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2013
The common bed bug species Cimex lectularius, which has a worldwide distribution, and C. hemipterus, which has tropical climate distribution, are hematophagous arthropods.1 The bugs are attracted to the human host by warmth and carbon dioxide, and bed bug infestations are rapidly increasing worldwide.

Sex‐Specific Control and Incomplete Matings: Sperm Removal Behavior in a Bush Cricket Species

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 194-203, March 2026.
In this study, we investigated which sex influences the duration of sperm removal behaviour (SRB) in the ornate bush cricket, Metaplastes ornatus. Female traits showed a weak effect on SRB duration, and lighter females mated more frequently. Frequent unsuccessful mating terminations shortened SRB indicating high level of sexual conflict.

Population dynamics of Drepanotrema cimex (Moricand, 1839) (Mollusca: Basommatophora: Planorbidae) in Barigüi Park, Curitiba City, State of Paraná, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesBiotemas, 2005
The ecology of the freshwater snail Drepanotrema cimex (Moricand, 1839), an intermediate host of trematode larvae, is little known in Brazil. We analyzed the population dynamics of D. cimex in Barigüi Park, Curitiba, Brazil.

The Effect of Differing Levels of Intrasexual and Intersexual Selection on Survival and Reproduction Under a Heatwave

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Precopulatory mating behaviour, are important for fitness and can be disrupted by heatwave's. Here we assess how differing levels of intrasexual and intrasexual selection in precopulatory mating behaviours impacts fitness responses to heatwaves. We find that the likelihood of having a brood is impacted by differences in intrasexual and intersexual ...

Bed bug preferences for host odor or aggregation odor are differentially modulated by physiological state in various odorscapes

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1426-1436, February 2026.
The bed bug olfactory system is highly tuned to two odor sources with dedicated odor information‐processing pathways that are modulated by the satiety–hunger state. Understanding the dynamic nature of switching odor preferences at different phases of blood digestion will contribute to the development of lures with host kairomones and aggregation ...
