Don't You Know That I'm Toxic? Wild Birds Learn to Avoid a Novel Aposematic Warning Signal. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
The foraging behaviours of predators towards aposematic prey have been studied extensively and there is much empirical evidence to support this theory. Often, studies involving wild species are relatively short‐term and so there is a possibility that any aversive behaviours exhibited by predators are merely neophobic. In this study, we ensure predators

Seed preferences of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae): Are there specialized trophic populations?

European Journal of Entomology, 2011
The populations of the firebug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae) in Europe exhibit three kinds of host plant associations: feeding on seeds of (1) Tilia spp. (Tiliaceae), (2) Malvaceae (s. str.), and (3) Robinia pseudacacia (Fabaceae). The

Genome of Leptomonas pyrrhocoris:a high-quality reference for monoxenous trypanosomatids and new insights into evolution of Leishmania [PDF]

, 2016
Many high-quality genomes are available for dixenous (two hosts) trypanosomatid species of the genera Trypanosoma, Leishmania, and Phytomonas, but only fragmentary information is available for monoxenous (single-host) trypanosomatids. In trypanosomatids,

Induced hyperlipaemia and immune challenge in locusts [PDF]

, 2004
Injections of immunogens, such as β-1,3-glucan or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), bring about a marked hyperlipaemia with associated changes in lipophorins and apolipophorin-III in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria.
