Ultrastructure of antennal sensilla of a prionine longhorn beetle, Prionoplus reticularis (White)
ABSTRACT Antennal sensilla are fundamental to an insects sensory perception of its environment. In species where one sex produces pheromones for attracting mates, we can predict antennal and sensilla morphology to be sexually dimorphic. Prionoplus reticularis White (Prioninae; Cerambycidae; Coleoptera) is a large longhorn beetle exhibiting a scramble ...

We show that hotter juvenile temperatures can increase adult fertility in an emerging model insect system. These reproductive benefits may be crucial for insect populations to avoid extinction during global warming, which often reduces survival rates. Population dynamics estimated from lethal stress alone, or without considering carryover effects from ...

Integrating Plant Volatile Scents in Sustainable IPM Approaches for Fall Armyworm Control
ABSTRACT Since the invasion of the fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) into new regions, studies have oriented toward low‐cost management tools and methods. This study assessed the effects of volatile scents that are naturally emitted by essential oil (EO) plants on the severity of FAW and populations of its natural ...
