Light effect on feeding of first instar Dipetalogaster maximus in xenodiagnosis [PDF]
over a period of ten years suggest that a smaller quantity of blood is being ingested by hungry first instar bugs1 3. Since in Mexico the majority of bugs are first instar of diumal habit it was suggested that feeding might be related to light intensity2.

Resistance of unfed first instar Dipetalogaster maximus to different enviromental conditions [PDF]
We have already determined the favourable temperature and humidity conditions for rearing D ipeta logaster maximus1. In each of the two experiments described here two newly hatched lots of 40 first instar bugs were studied. One group was maintained in our insectary at a mean temperature o f280 C (range 27-30) and a mean humidity of 50 % (range 47-50 %).

Egg Hatching and First Instar Falling Models of Metcalfa pruinosa (Hemiptera: Flatidae)
Since the citrus flatid planthopper, Metcalfa pruinosa (Say), was introduced in Korea and many European countries, it has caused serious damage to various agricultural crops and landscape plants.

Determination of application time and concentration of mineral oil against Pulvinaria aurantii (Hemiptera: Coccidae) in northern Iran [PDF]
To determine the most appropriate concentration and application time of mineral oil against Pulvinaria aurantii Cockerell, the reaction rate of egg hatching and the emergence of mobile cushion citrus instars to different concentrations of mineral oil in ...

We reared Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann 1819) unadult stages (first larval instar, second larval instar, third larval instar and pupal stage) under four constant temperatures. Results proved that increasing temperature from 20 to 25, 30 and 35 °C reduced

The First Instar of Wohlfahrtia vigil Walker
On July 9, 1907, in Ithaca, N. Y., the writer captured a female specimen, which when placed in the cyanide bottle, immediately deposited several larvae on the side of the glass. The species is therefore larviparous, like other Sarcophagids. As the adult of this species has several striking characteristics, it was possible, even at that date, and before

Subversion of Atypical Mucin Traps by a Spore‐Coat Effector Blocks Cellular Immunity in Drosophila
While the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii can evade insect humoral immunity, its subversion of cellular defenses is still elusive. We identify Eac1 as a spore‐coat protein essential for infecting drosophilids by targeting atypical mucins (Sgf1 and Sgf2), which can entrap spores in a gel matrix and thereby facilitate hemocyte encapsulation.
