SOME OBSERVATIONS ON OVIPOSITION IN THE FOWL [PDF]
1. Six out of nine hens were able to lay their eggs after spinal transections, but the process took much longer than normal.2. Ovulation was almost completely inhibited in the spinal birds.3. Observations at laparotomy show that during oviposition the uterus is not everted as claimed by Wickmann, but that the egg passes from the uterus into the vagina ...

Oviposition in the blood-sucking insect Rhodnius prolixus is modulated by host odors [PDF]
Background: Triatomine bugs are blood-sucking insects, vectors of Chagas disease. Despite their importance, their oviposition behavior has received relatively little attention. Some triatomines including Rhodnius prolixus stick their eggs to a substrate.

Egg parasitoid exploitation of plant volatiles induced by single or concurrent attack of a zoophytophagous predator and an invasive phytophagous pest [PDF]
Zoophytophagous insect predators can induce physiological responses in plants by activating defence signalling pathways, but whether plants can respond to facultative phytophagy by recruiting natural enemies remains to be investigated.

The large copper butterfly, Lycaena dispar batavus, a subspecies of much conservation interest, is host-specific to the great water dock, Rumex hydrolapathum, but little is known of the relationship between herbivore and host in wild populations.

Solvent Deactivation of Mimosa Webworm Larval Webbing (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) [PDF]
Untreated larval webbing of the mimosa webworm, Homadaula anisocentra stimulated oviposition. Six-week-old webbing was as active as two-day-old webbing.

Oviposition experience affects oviposition preference in Drosophila melanogaster
Learning, memorizing, and recalling of potential ovipositing sites can influence oviposition preference. Classical conditioning experiments have shown that vinegar flies can learn the association of olfactory, gustatory, or visual stimuli with either positive or negative unconditioned stimuli.

Bacteria as Ovipositional Attractants for \u3ci\u3eAedes Aegypti\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
The effectiveness of selected bacterial species as ovipositional attractants for Aedes aegypti was compared. Bacterial washes, in glass containers, were utilized as ovipositional substrates and subsequent egg counts determined the degree of ovipositional
