Effects of Host Quality on Flight Muscle Development inNeochetina eichhorniaeandN. bruchi(Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

open access: yesFlorida Entomologist, 2010
ABSTRACT Neochetina eichhorniae Warner and N. bruchi Hustache, biological control agents of Eichhornia crassipes (Martius) Solms-Laubach, are usually incapable of flight but occasionally develop indirect flight muscles enabling dispersal. This reportedly alternates with oogenesis and is reversible. We examined host quality as a possible explanation for
