To explore the courtship, mating and oviposition behavior of Chilo suppressalis (Walker) in a high dose sex pheromone environment, the mating disruption was simulated in a wind tunnel, and the sex pheromone titers were analyzed in combination with ...

Suboptimal Larval Habitats Modulate Oviposition of the Malaria Vector Mosquito Anopheles coluzzii. [PDF]
Selection of oviposition sites by gravid females is a critical behavioral step in the reproductive cycle of Anopheles coluzzii, which is one of the principal Afrotropical malaria vector mosquitoes.

Theoretical studies have shown that in protection mutualism, the modification of top‐down control by protectors may be destabilizing. Central to this prediction are the assumptions that (1) protection mutualism increases the abundance of protected ...

Phenology of Oviposition of \u3ci\u3eDasyneura Oxycoccana\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Relation to Cranberry Plant Growth and Flowering [PDF]
Eggs of cranberry tipworm, Dasyneura oxycoccana (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) were sampled in a Wisconsin cranberry marsh from 1990 through 1992. Oviposition began in May within one week after the first cranberry shoots elongated more than 5 mm.

Fish microbiota repels ovipositing mosquitoes
AbstractThe mere presence of predators causes prey organisms to enact predation-avoidance strategies. This presence is often reveled through predator-released kairomones. It was previously suggested that in many cases, the predator’s microbiota composition plays an important role in the release of these kairomones, however this mechanism is still ...

Oviposition by the Banded Sunflower Moth, \u3ci\u3eCochylis Hospes\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Cochylidae) in Response to \u3ci\u3eHelianthus Annuus\u3c/i\u3e Pollen [PDF]
Oviposition on an artificial substrate by the banded sunflower moth Cochylis hospes Walsingham was examined in response to sunflower pollen (Helianthus annuus) and sunflower pollen extract.

Factors Influencing Oviposition in \u3ci\u3eAedes Triseriatus\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
Five factors associated with natural oviposition sites were tested for their attractancy to ovipositing Aedes triseriatus, including dyed oviposition water, presence of decaying organic matter, a dark oviposition container, water in which conspecific ...

Effect of Habitat on Blow Fly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) Oviposition in Michigan [PDF]
Forensic entomology applies data gained from insects to aid the criminal justice system. Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are usually the first insects to arrive and oviposit (lay eggs) on carrion.

Oviposition behaviors in herbivorous mites are affected by several factors i.e. food availability for juveniles and reduced predation risks. We used the twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Tetranychidae) to find out whether the previous ...
