Species Composition and Visiting Frequencies of Flower Visitors of Chromolaena odorata in a Dry Zone Forest Patch of Sri Lanka

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Plant‐animal interaction has been a major theme in ecology as it has helped ecologists to rule out different patterns they observed in the surrounding environments. Chromolaena odorata is another plant species that is studied extensively as it has become a major troublesome weed in many parts of the tropics.

Live imaging of symbiosis: spatiotemporal infection dynamics of a GFP‐labelled Burkholderia symbiont in the bean bug Riptortus pedestris

Molecular Ecology, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 1445-1456, March 2014., 2014
Abstract Many insects possess endosymbiotic bacteria inside their body, wherein intimate interactions occur between the partners. While recent technological advancements have deepened our understanding of metabolic and evolutionary features of the symbiont genomes, molecular mechanisms underpinning the intimate interactions remain difficult to approach

Habitat characteristics and nest of the ladybird spider, Eresus kollari (Araneae: Eresidae) in South Korea

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Eresus kollari is typically found in dry grasslands and stony steppes; however, in South Korea, it has been primarily found in the humid environments of cemeteries. These spiders have highly localized habitats, and their burrowing and nest‐building habits make them difficult to find and observe in the field.

Host‐Symbiont Interactions for Potentially Managing Heteropteran Pests

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Insects in the suborder Heteroptera, the so‐called true bugs, include over 40,000 species worldwide. This insect group includes many important agricultural pests and disease vectors, which often have bacterial symbionts associated with them. Some symbionts have coevolved with their hosts to the extent that host fitness is compromised with the removal ...

Volatile Chemicals of Adults and Nymphs of the Eucalyptus Pest, Thaumastocoris peregrinus (Heteroptera: Thaumastocoridae)

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Thaumastocoris peregrinus is an introduced “true bug” that is now a severe pest in Eucalyptus plantations of various Southern Hemisphere countries. The semiochemicals of thaumastocorids are completely unknown. Therefore, volatile chemicals from T. peregrinus nymphs and adults were identified as possible leads for pheromones potentially useful for ...
