Any regular reader of this column will have noticed a preoccupation with developmental pathology. This is a personal interest, but depends on a conviction that the mechanisms of development, properly understood, are central to the development of most degenerative disease and of much other pathology. The latest surprise is about carcinoma of the colon.

Marking Drosophila suzukii (Diptera : Drosophilidae) with fluorescent dusts [PDF]
The marking of Drosophila suzukii can be an important instrument for studying the ecology and behaviour of this economically important fruit pest, aiding the development of new Integrated Pest Management (IPM) tools or strategies.

SummaryAlthough the ∼3000 species belonging to the Drosophilidae family are customarily referred to as fruit flies — as for example the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster — many have essentially little to do with fruit. Most drosophilids feed on microbes, and can hence be found on a wide variety of substrates, of which some are quite peculiar. Arguably

Object preference by walking fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, is mediated by vision and graviperception [PDF]
Walking fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, use visual information to orient towards salient objects in their environment, presumably as a search strategy for finding food, shelter or other resources.

Team organization may help swarms of flies to become invisible in closed waveguides [PDF]
We are interested in a time harmonic acoustic problem in a waveguide containing flies. The flies are modelled by small sound soft obstacles. We explain how they should arrange to become invisible to an observer sending waves from $-\infty$ and measuring ...
