Crustacean red pigment-concentrating hormone Panbo-RPCH affects lipid mobilization and walking activity in a flightless bug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera) similarly to its own AKH-peptides

European Journal of Entomology, 2007
In the present study we tested whether the walking activity of macropterous females of the flightless wing-polymorphic bug Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) can be stimulated by its native adipokinetic hormone Peram-CAH-II and the crustacean red pigment ...

Sexual activity in macropterous and brachypterous males of a flightless bug, Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera)

European Journal of Entomology, 2001
The long-winged (macropterous) and short-winged (brachypterous) adult males of Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.) from temperate (Czech Republic) and Mediterranean (Israel) populations were analysed for the sexual activity and the functional activity of their ...

Termination of diapause in the lime seed bug Oxycarenus lavaterae (Heteroptera: Lygaeoidea: Oxycarenidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2023
The true bug Oxycarenus lavaterae has spread northwards through Europe from the Mediterranean at the beginning of the 21st century. Temperature and photoperiod in particular countries are important for the prediction of further spread.

Physiology of cold-acclimation in non-diapausing adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera)

European Journal of Entomology, 2002
Chill tolerance (time of survival at -5°C) increased in non-diapausing (reproducing) adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus after a gradual, 4-week-long decrease in ambient temperature from 25° to 0°C.

Effects of aromatic compounds on movement activity of Pyrrhocoris apterus in the conditions of a laboratory experiment

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2022
In the conditions of an urban environment, insects, including Pyrrhocoris apterus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Hemiptera, Pyrrhocoridae), are subject to dozens of volatiles: solvents, food flavorings, cosmetic products.

Methoprene modifies adipokinetic hormone characteristics in the firebug Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2010
In the present study the hypothesis that there is a feedback between juvenile hormone and adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) was investigated by topical application of the juvenoid methoprene on 9-day-old adult males of the firebug Pyrrhocoris apterus.

Sexual dimorphism of diapause regulation in the hemipteran bug Pyrrhocoris apterus

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2022
Diapause is one of the major strategies for insects to prepare for and survive harsh seasons. In females, the absence of juvenile hormone (JH) is a hallmark of adult reproductive diapause, a developmental arrest, which is much less characterized in males.

Anatomy and Histology of the Midgut of Atopozelus opsimus (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atopozelus opsimus Elkins, 1954 (Heteroptera: Reduviidae) preys on forest and agricultural pests but also feeds on extrafloral nectar; however, its alimentary canal is poorly understood. The aim was to describe the anatomy and histology of the A. opsimus midgut. The alimentary canal of female and male A.
