A Culture Method for Darkling Beetles, Blapstinus spp. (Coleoptera:Tenebrionidae) [PDF]

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2015
Darkling beetles, Blapstinus spp., have become a serious pest of Cucurbitaceae crops, especially in California. A culture method was sought to provide large numbers (>500) of adult beetles of known age and sex that could be used for laboratory testing when needed.

Water Costs of Gas Exchange by a Speckled Cockroach and a Darkling Beetle [PDF]

Insects, 2020
Respiratory water loss during metabolic gas exchange is an unavoidable cost of living for terrestrial insects. It has been suggested to depend on several factors, such as the mode of gas exchange (convective vs. diffusive), species habitat (aridity), body size and measurement conditions (temperature). We measured this cost in terms of respiratory water

Unexpected Evolutionary Divergence of Tachykinin-Positive Neurons Innervating the Central Complex in Hexapods. [PDF]

J Comp Neurol
The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.
