The Essential Oils Compounds of Lippia multiflora Moldenke and Cymbopogon schoenanthus (L.) Spreng Repel and Affect the Survival of the Maize Pest Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Larvae

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Plant‐derived insecticides, such as essential oils, can be an effective alternative to replace synthetic chemical insecticides against Spodoptera frugiperda, which becomes increasingly resistant to synthetic products. This study aims to evaluate essential oils (EOs) effects on larval growth and development following feeding inhibition, growth ...

Effects on cattle of artificial infestations with the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus

open access: yesParasitology, 1985
Groups of ten cattle were exposed to 0, 40 and 400 adult Rhipicephalus appendiculatus feeding once a week for 24 weeks. Although no differences in cumulative percentage weight gain were found at the end of the experiment, animals free of ticks performed better during the first 12 weeks.

The feeding behaviour of larvae, nymphs and adults of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus

open access: yesParasitology, 1976
The pre-feeding and feeding periods of larvae, nymphs and adults of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus on rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) were investigated. Larvae and nymphs required at least 8–9 days after hatching and moulting respectively before they could attach and start feeding, while adults required at least 6–9 days.
