Biological control of insect pests by insect parasitoids and predators: the BIOCAT database.

Biocontrol News and Information, 1992
The structure of the BIOCAT database, which contains records of the introductions of insect natural enemies for the control of insect pests worldwide, and is now available online, is explained.

Vitellogenesis in Insects

1985
Fertilized eggs are the crossroads of development. They represent both the origin and the biological goal of each individual organism. Eggs provide in two ways for the embryo they enclose: They contain developmental instructions given by the mother to direct the initial phases of embryogenesis (see Chapters 11–13), and they are usually provisioned with

RESPIRATION OF INSECTS

Science, 1927
These experiments would seem to prove that no special spiracles are used for inhaling and others used for exhaling, but rather that all are alike in this respect, as the abdomen expands air is taken in and as the body contracts the gases are exhaled.

Putting the insect into the birch?insect interaction

Oecologia, 2003
Leaf maturation in mountain birch (Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii) is characterized by rapid shifts in the types of dominant phenolics: from carbon-economic flavonoids aglycons in flushing leaves, via hydrolysable tannins and flavonoid glycosides, to carbon-rich proanthocyanidins (condensed tannins) in mature foliage.

The insect abdomen—a heartbeat manager in insects?

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2002
Different possibilities of coordination between circulation, respiration and abdominal movements were found in pupae of Pieris brassicae, Tenebrio molitor, Galleria mellonella and Leptinotarsa decemlineata. Coordination principles depend on metabolic rate: the need to support circulation with abdominal movements appears only at higher metabolic rates ...
