Background matching, disruptive coloration, and differential use of microhabitats in two neotropical grasshoppers with sexual dichromatism

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Cryptic coloration is an adaptative defensive mechanism against predators. Color patterns can become cryptic through background coloration‐matching and disruptive coloration.

The influence of the atmospheric boundary layer on nocturnal layers of noctuids and other moths migrating over southern Britain [PDF]

, 2006
Insects migrating at high altitude over southern Britain have been continuously monitored by automatically-operating, vertical-looking radars over a period of several years.

Ferocious Fighting between Male Grasshoppers

PLoS ONE, 2012
Contests among individuals over mating opportunities are common across diverse taxa, yet physical conflict is relatively rare. Due to the potentially fatal consequences of physical fighting, most animals employ mechanisms of conflict resolution involving

Gonadulin and Insulin‐Like Growth Factor Involved in Rhipicephalus microplus Reproduction

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Insulin‐like growth factor (IGF2) in ovaries of Rhipicephalus microplus partially engorged females. Ovaries from females at different feeding stages were used to detect IGF2. ABSTRACT Gonadulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) are neuropeptides synthesized by the central nervous system (CNS) of arthropods.

Timescale-invariant representation of acoustic communication signals by a bursting neuron [PDF]

, 2009
Acoustic communication often involves complex sound motifs in which the relative durations of individual elements, but not their absolute durations, convey meaning.

From leaves to defenders: How the amount and dispersion of leaf damage affect extrafloral nectar production and ant‐mediated protection in wild cotton

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Extrafloral nectar mediates interactions among plants, ants and herbivores; its contingency on damage amount and within‐plant uniformity is poorly understood. Here, we explore these factors in wild cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Herbivory amount drove increases in extrafloral nectar induction per nectary, whereas within‐plant variability in damage ...
