Anopheles larval species composition and characterization of breeding habitats in two localities in the Ghibe River Basin, southwestern Ethiopia

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2020
Background Documentation of the species composition of Anopheles mosquitoes and characterization of larval breeding sites is of major importance for the implementation of larval control as part of malaria vector control interventions in Ethiopia.

Effect of presence and semiochemicals of conspecific stages on oviposition by ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2012
Reduced oviposition by ladybirds in the presence of tracks of fourth instar larvae owing to the presence of oviposition deterring pheromones is well established across many genera.

Larval transport modeling of deep-sea invertebrates can aid the search for undiscovered populations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Many deep-sea benthic animals occur in patchy distributions separated by thousands of kilometres, yet because deep-sea habitats are remote, little is known about their larval dispersal.

How Life History Characteristics and Environmental Forcing Shape Settlement Success of Coral Reef Fishes

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Larval settlement is shaped by the interaction of biological processes (e.g., life history strategies, behavior etc.) and the environment (e.g., temperature, currents etc.).

Changes in biomass and chemical composition during lecithotrophic larval development of the southern king crab, Lithodes santolla (Molina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Changes in biomass and elemental composition (dry mass, W; carbon, C; nitrogen, N; hydrogen, H) were studied in the laboratory during complete larval and early juvenile development of the southern king crab, Lithodes santolla (Molina), formerly known as ...

Larval development of the subantarctic squat lobster (Munida subrugosa (White, 1847) (Anomura: Galatheidae), reared in the laboratory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The larval development of the squat lobster Munida subrugosa from subantarctic waters of the Beagle Channel (Tierra del Fuego, Argentina) was studied under controlled laboratory conditions of temperature, salinity, and food supply.

Autumn shifts in cold tolerance metabolites in overwintering adult mountain pine beetles.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a major forest pest of pines in western North America. Beetles typically undergo a one-year life cycle with larval cold hardening in preparation for overwintering.

Strongyloidiasis infection in a borderline lepromatous leprosy patient with adrenocorticoid insufficiency undergoing corticosteroid treatment: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Strongyloidiasis is a soil-transmitted helminthiasis mainly caused by Strongyloides stercoralis. It is endemic to the tropics and subtropics. Sri Lanka has a 0–1.6% prevalence rate. S.

Larval anisakid infections of some tropical fish species from north-west Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Despite the commercial and zoonotic importance of larval anisakid infestations of teleosts, their distribution among Australia's diverse marine fish fauna is poorly understood.

The implications of temperature-mediated plasticity in larval instar number for development within a marine invertebrate, the shrimp Palaemonetes varians

open access: yes, 2013
Variations in larval instar number are common among arthropods. Here, we assess the implications of temperature-mediated variations in larval instar number for larval development time, larval growth rates, and juvenile dry weight within the palaemonid ...
