CONTACT CHEMORECEPTORS ON THE OVIPOSITOR OF LOCUSTA MIGRATORIA L.
Australian Journal of Entomology, 1977 AbstractSix morphologically distinct types of sensilla have been located on the ovipositor valves of the migratory locust. One type of sensillum has a well marked terminal pore which classifies it as a contact chemoreceptor.

Odour conditioning of ovipositor probing in a parasitic wasp
Ethology Ecology and Evolution, 1995We investigated the occurrence of odour learning in the ovipositor probing activity of Leptopilina boulardi, a parasitoid of Drosophila larvae. A device was set up to observe the probing behaviour in response to an odour. Systematic and persistent probing in response to the odour (banana) was observed after associative conditioning, i.e., after the ...

Current Biology, 2020 Communication between male and female fruit flies during courtship is essential for successful mating but, as with many other species, it is the female who decides whether to mate.

Electrophysiological activity of the Sirex noctilio ovipositor: You know the drill?
Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology, 2015 Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio F: Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is a major worldwide pest of pine (Pinus) species. The female woodwasp undertakes exploratory drills with the ovipositor prior to egg-laying to assess tree suitability.

Neural mechanism for generating and switching motor patterns of rhythmic movements of ovipositor valves in the cricket [PDF]
Journal of Insect Physiology, 2011 In adult female crickets (Gryllus bimaculatus), rhythmic movements of ovipositor valves are produced by contractions of a set of ovipositor muscles that mediate egg-laying behavior.

The gustatory sensilla on the endophytic ovipositor of Odonata
Arthropod Structure & Development, 2013The present paper aims at describing the fine structure of coeloconic sensilla located on the cutting valves of the endophytic ovipositor of two Odonata species, the anisopteran Aeshna cyanea (Aeshnidae) and the zygopteran Ischnura elegans (Coenagrionidae), by carrying out parallel investigations under SEM and TEM.

The Morphology of the Ovipositor of Draeculacephala
Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1933The ovipositor of Draeculacephala mollipes (Say) is carried in a longitudinal receptacle (Pl. I, Fig. 8, a) in the caudoventral part of the abdomen. It consists of two pairs of chitinous valvulae (Pl. I, Figs. 1 and 2), which have come to lie mostly in the same caudocephalic plane. The anterior pair (Pl. I, Fig.

Superextension and supercontraction in locust ovipositor muscles
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1983A ten times elongation of certain abdominal intersegmental muscles occurs in female locusts during digging prior to oviposition. During and after oviposition the muscles contract, shortening by up to 90% or more, restoring the resting positions of the abdominal segments.

Flexible ovipositor sheaths in parasitoid Hymenoptera (Insecta)
Arthropod Structure & Development, 2003The structure of the ovipositor sheaths is examined in a number of parasitic wasps as well as a few non-parasitic taxa. Parasitic wasps in the families Aulacidae, Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, Megalyridae, and Stephanidae with a very elongate, external ovipositor have the lateral wall of the sheath finely transversely subdivided by narrow furrows.
