Quantifying the success of prey crypsis, aposematism, and evasiveness in avoiding predator attack

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Antipredator defenses typically act at distinct stages of the predation sequence—encounter, identification, approach, and subjugation. However, their effectiveness has rarely been quantified and compared simultaneously in wild predator–prey systems.

Assessment of the entomopathogenic nematodes against maggots and pupae of the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae), under laboratory conditions

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2019
The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is one of the major insect pests which renders the fruit to become unfit for human consumption. In severe cases, losses may reach up to 100% in some fruit crops.

Spatial Interpolation in Applied Insect Ecology: A Review, Including Guidelines and Datasets for Practical Use

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 9, Page 1319-1334, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation represents a fundamental approach in applied insect ecology, offering insight into species distributions and supporting biodiversity analysis, pest management and disease vector mapping. Insects—including important pollinators—face escalating threats due to habitat loss, climate change and anthropogenic pressures. As data‐

Impact of Oriental Fruit Fly Postharvest Treatments on Avocado

American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2017
The detection in August 2015 of the Oriental Fruit Fly (Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel, Diptera: Tephritidae) in the Redland area in Miami-Dade County, Florida triggered a quarantine that restricted the movement of fruit fly host material in an approximately 99-square mile (256-square kilometer) area.

Insights into pupal development of Bactrocera dorsalis: factors influencing eclosion

Scientific Reports
In the life cycle of the oriental fruit fly where larvae reside within fruits and adults exhibit high activity, the pupal stage occurs in the soil, closely tied to agricultural soil management.

Population dynamics of Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae) in Lujiangba, Yunnan

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2007
Annual monitoring was conducted on the population dynamics of the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) through methyl eugenol-baited traps all year during 2004—2006 in Lujiangba, Yunnan, China. Temperature, rainfall and
