Substrate Preference of Black Soldier Fly Larvae Is Influenced by Rearing History

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
BSF larvae were reared under six different conditions: low, medium, or high larval density and on low, medium, and high‐water feeds to investigate feed choice behaviour. Larvae reared under all six conditions preferred substrate colonised by conspecifics. Low‐water feed caused slower larval growth and development.

Environmental Stress Drives Plasticity in Sexual Bimaturism in the Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens Linnaeus, 1758)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We measured the plasticity in sexual bimaturism (SBM; differences between sexes in the timing of sexual maturity) in the black soldier fly (BSF) by exposing larvae to nutrient availability and humidity stress. Our results show that SBM can range between protandry and protogyny depending on the environmental quality. Additionally, we found the degree of

Renal tubular acidosis in a mule mare

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in horses is differentiated into type I (distal) and type II (proximal) forms. We report the diagnostic evaluation and treatment of type I RTA in a 13‐year‐old mule mare that was referred because of lethargy and inappetence of several weeks' duration as well as lack of manure, anorexia and mild colic for 3 days.

Surgical management of recurrent oesophageal obstruction in a yearling Saddlebred filly

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This case report describes the diagnostic approach and surgical management of a yearling Saddlebred filly with recurrent oesophageal obstruction, likely caused by an acquired extraluminal oesophageal stricture. The filly initially presented with repeated episodes of oesophageal obstruction, which were resolved with sedation and nasogastric ...
