Azine Derivatives as a New Generation of Insect Growth Regulators
A new generation of insect-growth-regulator insecticides, the azines, are presented. They inhibit the chitin biosynthesis process and are active against lepidopteran pests. Their synthesis and a structure–activity relationship will be discussed.

Resistance of Musca domestica L. populations to cyromazine (insect growth regulator) in Brazil
Five field populations of Musca domestica L. collected in poultry farms were bioassayed in order to detect possible resistance to the larvicide cyromazine in Brazil. The concentrations used were 0, 0.5, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 1, 2, 4 and 8 ppm. Three populations
