Relationship Among Orangestriped Oakworm (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) Frass Length, Frass Production, Host Plant, and Defoliation [PDF]
Defoliation of urban oak trees by the orangestriped oakworm, Anisota senatoria (J. E. Smith), and associated frass has become a significant problem in southeastern Virginia. Measurements of frass length and production provided a decision-making guideline for A. senatoria management. Frass length was used to differentiate A.

The ecological importance of insect frass: allelopathy in eucalypts
Oecologia, 1985Our previously published experiments on allelopathic effects of insect frass in Eucalyptus communities (Silander et al. 1983) have been criticized on the grounds that our estimates of annual frass production were exscessive (Ohmart 1985). However, we spanned the entire array of estimates of frass fall available from eucalypt communities, and we ...

Insect Frass as a Pathway for Transmission of Bacterial Wilt of Cucurbits
Environmental Entomology, 2009Insects that vector diseases of plants are of critical concern to agriculture, but relationships between the vectors and pathogens often are poorly understood. In this study, we present research on vector relationships between the striped cucumber beetle, Acalymma vittatum (F.) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), and the pathogen that causes bacterial wilt of

Volatile fatty acids of frass of certain omnivorous insects
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1985The frass of the following omnivorous insects reared on natural and artificial diets was analyzed for volatile fatty acids:Blattella germanica, Acheta domesticus, Blaberus discoidalis. Acetic, propionic, isobutyric, butyric, isovaleric, and valeric acids were identified in all frass samples. The possible significance of volatile fatty acids in frass is
