Evidence of Cuticle Chemicals of Heortia vitessoides (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) Larvae Influencing the Aggregation Behavior of Conspecific Larvae

open access: yesInsects
Heortia vitessoides (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is a severe pest of Aquilaria plants, which produce high-priced agarwood. The larval stage of this pest is gregarious, usually forming large aggregates during young instars and becoming solitary during the ...

Prey preference of Eupeodes corollae (Dip.: Syrphidae) on different nymphal instars of Brevicoryne brassicae (Hem.: Aphididae) [PDF]

open access: yesنامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2012
The prey stage preferences of the second and third instar larvae of syrphid fly species Eupeodes corollae (Fabricius) on different nymphal instars of Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) were studied in no-choice and choice conditions (25 ± 2°C, 65 ± 5% R.H ...

New species of Homidia (Collembola, Entomobryidae) from eastern China with description of the first instar larvae

open access: yesZooKeys, 2011
Morphology of the first instar larvae of Collembola has considerably taxonomical and phylogenetic significance. We describe the first instar larvae for the first time in Homidia.

Biocontrol potential of naturally occurring entomopathogens against Maladera formosae in corn–soybean rotated systems

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We isolated three insect‐killing nematodes from Maladera formosae infested corn–soybean rotated fields, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, Pristionchus sp., and Steinernema carpocapsae. Results from greenhouse and field microcosm studies indicate all three nematodes can infect and kill M. formosae grubs and persist through winter.

Study of some biological aspects of the blowfly Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann 1819) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2016
We reared Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann 1819) unadult stages (first larval instar, second larval instar, third larval instar and pupal stage) under four constant temperatures. Results proved that increasing temperature from 20 to 25, 30 and 35 °C reduced

Induced allopatry as main mechanism explaining trap catch reduction in low dose mating disruption trials on the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated pheromone‐based mating disruption of the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). In treated crop areas males were more attracted to the dispensers than to the trap lures and aggregated near such dispensers, explaining the low catches in traps in these areas as an effect of competitive disruption via induced ...

Life history and fitness costs in the lambda‐cyhalothrin resistant clone of English grain aphid, Sitobion avenae (Fabricius)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the life‐history traits and fitness costs of English grain aphid clones that are resistant to lambda‐cyhalothrin (SA3) and susceptible to it (SA27). Overall, the results showed that there are differences in the stages of development, survival, reproduction and population growth.

Sensitivity of Immature \u3ci\u3eThyanta Calceata\u3c/i\u3e (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) to Photoperiod as Reflected by Adult Color and Pubescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dimorphism in color and pubescence of adult Thyanta calceata, in response to 8L:16D and 16L:8D photoperiods, resulted from an accumulation of photoperiod effects on two or more immature stages. More immature stages were receptive to 8L:16D than to 16L:8D
