Temporal population genetics of time travelling insects: a long term study in a seed-specialized wasp. [PDF]
Many animal species experiencing spatial or interannual fluctuations of their environment are capable of prolonged diapause, a kind of dormancy that extends over more than one year.

Embryonic diapause or temporary cessation of embryonic development is a common phenomenon in the plant and animal species. Embryonic diapause is a temporary cessation of the development of embryogenesis in the blastocyst stage and is a reproductive strategy characterized by delayed implantation in the uterus.

Life Cycles of \u3ci\u3eLeuctra Duplicata\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eOstrocerca Prolongata\u3c/i\u3e in an Intermittent Streamlet in Quebec (Plecoptera: Leuctridae and Nemouridae) [PDF]
Large populations of Ostrocerca prolongata and Leuctra duplicata developed in a small intermittent stream in the foothills of the Laurentian Highlands of Quebec. Both species were univoltine in 1974-1975.

Steroid hormone ecdysone deficiency stimulates preparation for photoperiodic reproductive diapause.
Diapause, a programmed developmental arrest primarily induced by seasonal environmental changes, is very common in the animal kingdom, and found in vertebrates and invertebrates alike.

Two Trapping Systems to Determine Incidence and Duration of Migration of Adult Alfalfa Weevils, \u3ci\u3eHypera Postica\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]
Emergence and flight traps were used to study the pre- and post-diapause movements of the alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica. The emergence traps proved to be an excellent tool in determining the time of diapause termination and in providing an accurate ...
