The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 647-671, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

Toxicity of some Plant Oils under Different Temperatures against Stored Grain Insects, Sitophilus oryzae and Rhyzopertha dominica [PDF]

Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology
Sitophilus oryzae and Rhyzopertha dominica are serious insect pests of stored products in Egypt. The use of plant materials rather than conventional insecticides to control these insects is a promising alternative to neurotoxic insecticides.

Cycle and Demographic Parameters of Ephestia cautella Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) on Shea Kernels

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ephestia cautella W. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is an insect pest associated with shea kernels that causes significant damage to stored products. In Burkina Faso, no study has been conducted to assess the biological effects on E. cautella after exposure to shea kernels, and therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate this.

Loss of animal feed due to infestation by Rhyzopertha dominica

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
Despite the use of natural food for livestock production, different animal feeds are currently available at the market. Long-term storage of these animal feeds lead to deterioration and contamination by insects. Therefore, it is important that the loss of these animal feeds be determined and methods to control the damage be sought.
