Efficacy of Tower Medfly Eclosion Systems
Biocontrol Science and Technology, 2004A 16-repetition experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of the “tower” system for eclosion of sterile medflies, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann). This system has now replaced the PARC system previously used in Florida S.I.T. programs. In addition to testing the efficacy of these eclosion systems, as compared to the PARC system, quality ...

Disturbance of adult eclosion by fenoxycarb in the silkworm, Bombyx mori
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1999Fenoxycarb treatment before and after pupal ecdysis of Bombyx mori disturbed adult eclosion and the animals were unable to escape from the pupal exuviae. This effect of fenoxycarb was dose and time dependent with the highest sensitivity around the pupal ecdysis. The sensitivity rapidly diminished within 20 hours of pupal ecdysis. Twenty-hydroxyecdysone

The Circadian Clocks of Insect Eclosion
1980Understanding the circadian timing of eclosion in insects is a pretty big undertaking. A lot of technical detail is essential and a lot of close reasoning from meticulous experiments stands in the place of direct observations on the “clock’s” unknown physiological mechanism. In that respect clockology has some of the intellectual delight of the earlier

DISTURBANCE OF ECLOSION SEQUENCE IN HYBRID LEPIDOPTERA
The Canadian Entomologist, 1983AbstractSome interspecific and interpopulation Lepidoptera and Orthoptera hybrids show a syndrome of developmental abnormalities referred to here as the “sequence effect.” In normal within population broods of Lepidoptera males develop slightly faster than females, but in crosses showing the sequence effect, females in one direction of the cross ...

The pupa and events leading to eclosion
1995The pupal stage of the chironomid life cycle has attracted increasing attention since the beginning of the century, stimulated by comprehensive rearing programmes, predominantly by Thienemann and his students, notably Potthast and Bause. The systematic value of the pupal stage was appreciated early as an aid to species identification and, later, in ...

‘Killer’-cell-mediated destruction of dipteran eclosion muscles
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. B. Biological Sciences, 1989Abstract After successful escape from the puparium, dipteran flies lose sets of eclosion muscles located within the head, thorax and abdomen. The thoracic eclosion muscles are described, with details of the degeneration of one of them.

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1977
ABSTRACT The wings of pharate adult tobacco hornworm moths, Manduca sexta, are relatively inextensible until 3 or 4 h before emergence from the pupal case. At this time the wing cuticle becomes plasticized, so that by the time of eclosion, the wings are readily extensible.

Evolution & Development
ABSTRACT Developmental modularity allows specific tissues to adjust their developmental timing to meet stage‐specific functional demands. During insect eclosion, the biomechanical requirements for emergence often conflict with adult defensive adaptations.
