Freezing for control of stored-product psocids [PDF]
Journal of Stored Products Research, 2017 Abstract A series of studies was conducted by exposing young and old eggs, nymphs, and adults of the psocids Liposcelis bostrychophila (Badonnel), L. paeta (Pearman), L. decolor (Pearman), and L. entomophila (Enderlein) to −18 °C for various time intervals.

Biology and Management of Psocids Infesting Stored Products [PDF]
Annual Review of Entomology, 2014 Previously regarded as minor nuisance pests, psocids belonging to the genus Liposcelis now pose a major problem for the effective protection of stored products worldwide. Here we examine the apparent biological and operational reasons behind this phenomenon and why conventional pest management seems to be failing. We investigate what is known about the

Population genetics of two asexually and sexually reproducing psocids species inferred by the analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The psocids Liposcelis bostrychophila and L. entomophila (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae) are found throughout the world and are often associated with humans, food stores and habitations.

From stored-product psocids to the other pests: the developments, problems and prospects on research and application of molecular identification [PDF]
Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018 Psocids, beetles, moths and mites are regarded as the common kinds of stored-product pests in the world. The rapid and correct identification of stored-product pests is significant for quarantine, monitoring and control purposes.

Susceptibility of stored-product psocids to aerosol insecticides. [PDF]
J Insect Sci, 2012 The efficacies of commercial methoprene and esfenvalerate aerosols for control of stored-product psocid pests were evaluated in simulated field studies. The efficacies of methoprene, esfenvalerate EC, the carrier Isopar-M™, and a combination of methoprene and esfenvalerate aerosols for control of Liposcelis decolor (Pearman) (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae)

Involvement of Methoprene-tolerant and Krüppel homolog 1 in juvenile hormone-mediated vitellogenesis of female Liposcelis entomophila (End.) (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae). [PDF]
Arch Insect Biochem Physiol, 2023 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 ...

Novel Foraging Behaviors of an Urban Bird, the Light-Vented Bulbul (<i>Pycnonotus sinensis</i>). [PDF]
Ecol EvolLight‐vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus sinensis) were observed foraging on tree trunks in a woodpecker‐like manner. Light‐vented Bulbuls foraged on insect aggregations under artificial street light. Our findings provide new insights into possible behavioral adaptation strategies of Light‐vented Bulbuls to urban environments. ABSTRACT Urban environments expose

Effects of Dehumidification on the Survivorship of Four Psocid Species [PDF]
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2021 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
