ABSTRACT The truffle beetle, Leiodes cinnamomeus, is the most important pest in black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) plantations. Adults and mycophagous larvae are active during autumn and winter, while diapausing larvae are not. Previous laboratory studies demonstrated the high virulence of the entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) Heterorhabditis ...

Pelagic distribution and night foraging of early juvenile European catfish (Silurus glanis L.)
Abstract This study provides evidence of pelagic occurrence and night feeding in early juvenile European catfish that contributed 0.2% to the early juvenile pelagic community at night in Klíčava, 0.3% in Římov, and 3.3% in Žlutice Reservoirs in the Czech Republic. The catfish occurred mostly at a depth of 2–4 m. Their abundance was 5.5 inds.1000 m−3 in

Abstract Early life development in fishes is a period of high phenotypic plasticity. Water temperatures during embryogenesis can lead to alterations in growth and metabolic and morphological phenotypic variations. This study aimed to characterize the effects of temperature on the growth and morphology of yellow perch throughout early development, a ...

Virtual dissection of Aedes aegypti mosquito using phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography
Abstract In this paper, in‐line phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography was used to study the morphology of adult Aedes aegypti. These specimens are vectors of several arboviruses, causing dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever. The morphological details of this insect species are still incomplete and insufficient.
