ABSTRACT The fruit‐piercing moth (FPM) Eudocima phalonia is widely present in the tropics, causing major damages to the citrus industry. In its ancestral distribution range, e.g. Australia, FPM develops on vines from the Menispermaceae family. But in more recently colonized islands, e.g. New Caledonia, FPM populations have shifted to new host plants of

Olfaction in the Colorado beetle at the onset of host plant selection [PDF]
Long-range olfactory orientation of the adult Colorado beetle was studied in a low- speed wind tunnel. The odour of fully grown potato plants elicits an upwind locomotory response in Colorado beetles (odour-conditioned positive anemotaxis), and increases

An evident sexual dimorphism concerning antennae length, types, number, and distribution of chemosensilla is shown. Long sensilla basiconica are present in females and could play a role in the host location and/or maternal care. Multiporous sensilla chaetica, longer and mostly represented in males, could play a role in intraspecific relationships ...

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes exhibit decreased repellency by DEET following previous exposure. [PDF]
DEET (N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide) is one of the most widely used mosquito repellents. Although DEET has been shown to be extremely effective, recent studies have revealed that certain individual insects are unaffected by its presence.
