Tracking individual Bactrocera tryoni: Wind effects and natural movement

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Modeling insect movement relies on accurate characterizations of natural step distances, turning angles, and speed. Harmonic radar was used to observe male Queensland fruit fly (Qfly), Bactrocera tryoni (Diptera: Tephritidae), movements (natural and disturbance‐induced) in papaya (Carica papaya, Caricaceae).

Multiple mating is not driven by size and sperm management in black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated mating in black soldier fly (BSF), Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), an important source of animal feed. The number of spermatozoa stored in the spermathecae of females does not change after one, two and three matings of the male. BSF males and females mate multiple times under controlled conditions. The number of sperm in the

Hemocytes: Central drivers of antimicrobial peptide expression and immune proteins in both cellular and humoral responses of Galleria mellonella

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We assessed gallerimycin, galiomycin, and hemolin gene expression in Galleria mellonella whole larvae, hemocytes, and fat body at 4 and 24 h post‐injection of Candida albicans and silica beads. Higher gallerimycin and galiomycin expression in hemocytes signified their role in antimicrobial peptide synthesis.

Cascading effects of grazing intensity on predatory arthropod and parasitoid densities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
The impacts of grazing on different taxa may also be indirect, depending upon trophic interactions with other members of the community. We studied the effects of grazing by ungulates on pompilid wasps (Hemipepsis and Pepsis hawk wasps) and tarantulas (Aphonopelma hentzi) by comparing the cover of forbs and the densities of hawk wasps and of tarantula ...
