Significant resource niche overlap between competing parasitoids does not prevent their successful co‐existence

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1632-1643, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Different species that exploit the same resources can sometimes co‐exist in the same habitat through resource sharing. For example, if resources are superabundant, then they can be easily partitioned interspecifically among different individuals. However, when resources

Neural processing of chemosensory information from the locust ovipositor [PDF]

, 2001
Contact chemoreceptors (basiconic sensilla) located on the ovipositor and genital segments of the locust serve to control the chemical features of the substrate before and during oviposition. They occur dispersed and

Fine structure of the external sheaths of the ovipositor of Aphidius ervi (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2018
The function and structure of the ovipositor in Hymenoptera have been studied intensively, although there is a lack of information on the external sheaths.

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 270-283, June 2026.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

Morphology and function of the ovipositor mechanism in Ceraphronoidea (Hymenoptera, Apocrita)

Journal of Hymenoptera Research, 2013
The ovipositor of apocritan Hymenoptera is an invaluable source of phylogenetically relevant characters, and our understanding of its functional morphology stands to enlighten us about parasitoid life history strategies. Although Ceraphronoidea is one of

Specialized ovipositor sensilla of Cretaceous wasps (Insecta: Hymenoptera) possibly reveal a unique way of host detection.

Insects have evolved complex sensory systems that are important for feeding, defence and reproduction. Parasitoid wasps often spend much time and effort in searching for concealed hosts with the help of specialized sensilla.

Structure and electrophysiological responses of gustatory organs on the ovipositor of the parasitoid Leptopilina heterotoma

, 2007
Location, structure and histology of chemosensilla on the tip of the ovipositor of the parasitoid Leptopilina heterotoma are described based on SEM and TEM studies. Furthermore, we developed a method for recording extracellular action potentials from the

Drosophila species (Diptera: Drosophilidae) oviposition patterns on fungi: The effect of allospecifics, substrate toughness, ovipositor structure and degree of specialisation

European Journal of Entomology, 2003
To determine if small-scale resource partitioning aids coexistence in fungal breeding Diptera we investigated the avoidance of interspecific larval competition by micro-resource partitioning of the host substrate in several species of Drosophila ...
