Embryonic Development of Appasus japonicus Vuillefroy, With Special Reference to Mouthparts Formation (Insecta: Heteroptera, Belostomatidae). [PDF]

open access: yesJ Morphol
In this study, we provide a detailed description of the embryonic development of Appasus japonicus, focusing on the formation of its specialized mouthparts. We identify homologies between the maxillary plate and maxillary palp and most parts of the stylet‐like mandibles and maxillae are housed within the labial palp.

Inhibitory Copulation Effect of Vibrational Rival Female Signals of Three Stink Bug Species as a Tool for Mating Disruption

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Stink bugs are major pests in diverse crops around the world. Pest management strategies based on insect behavioral manipulation could help to develop biorational management strategies of stink bugs. Insect mating disruption using vibratory signals is an

Stimulatory male volatiles for the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (F.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Entomology, 2003
Volatiles compounds collected from the male Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (F.), a serious Central and South American soybean pest, have been reevaluated. The proportion of three methyl esters is found to be quite different from previous study.

Sexual Success after Stress? Imidacloprid-Induced Hormesis in Males of the Neotropical Stink Bug Euschistus heros. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Environmental stress in newly-emerged adult insects can have dramatic consequences on their life traits (e.g., dispersion, survival and reproduction) as adults. For instance, insects sublethally exposed to environmental stressors (e.g., insecticides) can

Variation of Clasper Scent Gland Composition of Heliconius Butterflies from a Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 24, Issue 22, November 16, 2023., 2023
Male Heliconius butterflies, which occur locally in three mimicry groups, show an extremely high diversity of compounds in their clasper scent glands. The more than 1,000 different compounds identified in 17 species are used for species‐specific mixtures of volatile and non‐volatile compounds, presumably used for chemical communication.

Insect invasions track a tree invasion: Global distribution of black locust herbivores

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 7, Page 1285-1298, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Many invasive plant species benefit from enemy release resulting from the absence of insect herbivores in their invaded range. However, over time, specialized herbivores may ‘catch up’ with such invasive plants. Black locust is a tree species with a relatively limited native range in North America but has invaded large areas in virtually ...

Floral attraction and flower visitors of a subcanopy, tropical rainforest tree, Fontainea picrosperma

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 15, Page 10468-10482, August 2021., 2021
Pollinators beneath the rainforest canopy occupy a unique microclimate that is markedly different from the canopy environment that receives more light energy. We studied the floral attractants and floral visitors of a dioecious, subcanopy rainforest tree, Fontainea picrosperma (Euphorbiaceae), in northern Australia.

Nanoparticle‐mediated double‐stranded RNA delivery system: A promising approach for sustainable pest management

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 21-34, February 2021., 2021
Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) targeting lethal genes in insects has great potential for sustainable crop protection. Compared with traditional double‐stranded (ds)RNA delivery systems, nanoparticles such as chitosan, liposomes, and cationic dendrimers offer advantages in delivering dsRNA/small interfering (si)RNA to improve RNAi efficiency, thus ...

Economic Injury Level of the Neotropical Brown Stink Bug Euschistus heros (F.) on Cotton Plants [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Entomology, 2016
In Brazil, the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (F.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), commonly disperses from soybeans to cotton fields. The establishment of an economic treatment threshold for this pest on cotton crops is required. Infestation levels of adults of E.
