Sexual ecological behavioral phases varied among blister beetles (Coleoptera: Meloidae)

, 2016
The Meloidae (blister or oil beetles) are widely distributed in the world. They have serious impacts, whether agronomic, veterinary or medical. The present review discussed several aspects in the behavioral ecology of Meloidae. The sexual behavior phases

Colloidal phoresis in odd fluids

Under a thermodynamic gradient, for example, the concentration or temperature gradients, the colloidal particles immersed in the solvent can exhibit a directional migration along or against the gradient -- phoresis, a cross transport effect. When the solvent is an odd fluid, where the time-reversal and parity symmetries are broken microscopically, the ...
