Mating activity of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae) in nature [PDF]
European Journal of Entomology, 2019 The mating behaviour of Pyrrhocoris apterus in the laboratory is well studied, but little is known about it under natural conditions. In natural populations in Central Europe, overwintered adults start copulating in March and continue until their death ...

Chromosomal divergence and evolutionary inferences in Pentatomomorpha infraorder (Hemiptera, Heteroptera) based on the chromosomal location of ribosomal genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 With the objective of assisting in the understanding of the chromosome evolution of Pentatomomorpha and in the quest to understand how the genome organizes/reorganizes for the chromosomal position of the 45S rDNA in this infraorder, we analyzed 15 ...

Effects of Crop Rotation Diversification and Livestock Integration on Above-Ground Arthropod Dynamics Under Conservation Agriculture. [PDF]
Ecol EvolDiverse crops in conservation agriculture systems can support a variety of arthropods, while sampling methods affected arthropod diversity outcomes. Canola‐Medics‐Wheat‐Medics rotation had a varied effect on arthropod diversity. We suggest that multiple taxa are necessary to compare diversification practices.

Climatic Variation of Supercooling Point in the Linden Bug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae) [PDF]
Insects, 2018 Cold tolerance is often one of the key components of insect fitness, but the association between climatic conditions and supercooling capacity is poorly understood.

Fruiting trees provide fruit and insect resources for four tropical deer species
EcosphereFruiting trees provide important fruit and seed resources for various animal species, but rarely are they considered to be rich sources of insects as well.

Effects of climate on the phenology of Annona senegalensis Pers. (Annonaceae) and the distribution of associated insects in Burkina Faso. [PDF]
Ecol EvolClimatic factors have an impact on the phenology of Annona senegalensis by shortening or lengthening the phenological phases in Burkina Faso. This affects the diversity and abundance of insects associated with this plant in cliamatic zones. Abstract Climate change and global warming in the Sahelian region cause dramatic drought and advancing of the ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2020 The current climate warming is associated with the development of a second generation in populations of species such as Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae), which, in Central Europe, were univoltine in the 1980s.

European Journal of Entomology, 2020 In pyrrhocorids, digestion of food occurs mainly in the midgut, which is divided into four parts (M1-M4), and takes between three and four days. Food is retained in M1 for about 5 h and passes quickly through M4.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 171, Issue 11, Page 867-877, November 2023., 2023 Characterizing and surveying arthropod diversity is a challenge, and often calls for the use of various methods. We compared the efficiency of two methods for assessing taxonomic and functional diversities. Suction sampling was more efficient than pitfall trapping in collecting phytophagous arthropods, web‐builders, and small species in the vegetation ...
