Ontogenetic development and reproduction of Zorocrates guerrerensis (Araneae: Zoropsidae)
Arachnologische Mitteilungen, 2018 Zorocrates guerrerensis Gertsch & Davis, 1940 is a Mexican cribellate spider with almost no information about its biology. As the species could potentially be of medical interest, it was decided to study basic aspects of its life history under laboratory

SUPERNUMERARY LARVAL INSTARS IN CYCLORRHAPHOUS DIPTERA
The Biological Bulletin, 1972 1. The developmental program for metamorphosis is determined in third instar larvae of Calliphora and Sarcophaga very early after ecdysis. The process is activated by feeding and can be delayed for many days by starvation.2. High doses of ecdysterone (20 µg per larva) injected just after ecdysis or in starved larvae cause a precocious molt and the ...

Insects, 2019 The number of larval instars is important from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Three previous studies based on head capsule widths (HCWs) have suggested that Dendrolimus pini larvae pass through seven instars, but the estimated HCW means ...
