Involvement of Methoprene-tolerant and Krüppel homolog 1 in juvenile hormone-mediated vitellogenesis of female Liposcelis entomophila (End.) (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae). [PDF]
A graphical summary of this study and a model of the role of juvenile hormone (JH) signaling in the reproduction of Liposcelis entomophila. JH signaling induces reproduction by enhancing the expression of Vg through Met and Kr‐h1. Blocking JH signaling by knockdown with Met and Kr‐h1, which inhibits Vg expression and affects reproduction, can provide ...

Limited sex differences in plastic responses suggest evolutionary conservatism of thermal reaction norms: A meta-analysis in insects. [PDF]
Abstract Temperature has a profound effect on the growth and development of ectothermic animals. However, the extent to which ecologically driven selection pressures can adjust thermal plastic responses in growth schedules is not well understood. Comparing temperature‐induced plastic responses between sexes provides a promising but underexploited ...

Liposcelis paeta (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae), a new record from Iran [PDF]
The psocid specimens were collected from Isfahan in 2009 and later identified as Liposcelis paeta Pearman and L. bostrychophila Badonnel (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae). The species L. paeta is recorded here for the first time from Iran.

Effects of Dehumidification on the Survivorship of Four Psocid Species [PDF]
AbstractPsocids are damaging stored-product pests. In this study, eggs and early-instar nymphs, adults, and all life stages of Liposcelis entomophila, L. decolor, L. bostrychophila, and L. paeta were subjected to 43, 50, or 75% (Control) relative humidity (RH) for 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, or 16 d at 30.0°C. All adults of these species died within 8 d at

Phylogenomics of the family Lachesillidae (Insecta: Psocodea: Psocomorpha)
Monophyly of bark lice family Lachesillidae never was recovered. Monophyly of the tribe Graphocaeciliini and the genus Lachesilla never were recovered. Systematic position of Eolachesilla chilensis was unstable across different analyses and data sets.

Despite previous studies that analyzed the foraging niches of shorebirds worldwide, the dietary niche dynamics of shorebirds coexisting in Asia are very poorly known. This study is therefore the early few that aim to unveil the trophic organization of shorebirds in a subtropical wetland within the EAAF.
