Effect of a Marking Pheromone and Population Density on Ladybird Larval Development and Adult Body Mass [PDF]
InsectsFemales of predaceous ladybirds use sensing chemicals in larval tracks as an oviposition-deterring pheromone to avoid cannibalism of eggs. We hypothesized that larvae would also respond to the presence of conspecific tracks by slowing their developmental

Larval habitat preferences of Anopheles dirus and Anopheles maculatus in North Sumatra, Indonesia [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsBackground While human malaria transmission in Indonesia has declined, reported cases of zoonotic Plasmodium knowlesi are increasing. This study examined the larval habitats of malaria vectors in North Sumatra to assess the potential of larval source ...

Response of chrysopids (Neuroptera) to larval tracks of aphidophagous coccinellids (Coleoptera)
European Journal of Entomology, 2001 Choice tests showed that tracks left by coccinellid larvae have generally little effect on oviposition site selection by chrysopid females. Fresh tracks of first instar larvae of the coccinellid species Coccinella septempunctata, Cycloneda limbifer, Leis
