Oviposition responses to patch quality in the larch ladybird Aphidecta obliterata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae): effects of aphid density, and con- and heterospecific tracks [PDF]
, 2006 The effects and persistence of oviposition-deterring semiochemical cues from conspecific and heterospecific larval tracks on the oviposition rate of Aphidecta obliterata (Linnaeus) females were investigated. In addition, the effects of varying aphid prey

FIM, a novel FTIR-based imaging method for high throughput locomotion analysis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 We designed a novel imaging technique based on frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) to obtain high resolution and high contrast movies. This FTIR-based Imaging Method (FIM) is suitable for a wide range of biological applications and a wide range ...

Continuous, long-term crawling behavior characterized by a robotic transport system
eLife, 2023 Detailed descriptions of behavior provide critical insight into the structure and function of nervous systems. In Drosophila larvae and many other systems, short behavioral experiments have been successful in characterizing rapid responses to a range of ...

Territoriality drives patterns of fixed space use in Caribbean parrotfishes
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Animals often occupy home ranges where they conduct daily activities. In many parrotfishes, large terminal phase (TP) males defend their diurnal (i.e., daytime) home ranges as intraspecific territories occupied by harems of initial phase (IP) females ...

Dye-fed larvae and FAST are both necessary for reliable larval tracking. [PDF]
, 2013 A. Without dye and FAST, the larva could not be followed once it encounters the petri-dish edge. B. FAST without dye also cannot reliably follow the larva when it encounters the edge. C.
