Amendment of Potting Soil With Black Soldier Fly Byproducts Affects Fungus Gnat Development

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The study's three experiments were conducted in accordance with the development stages of fungus gnats, with adults emerging from the four treatment substrates and being caught on sticky cards as a common indicator. The treatments were formed from peat‐free potting soil, either pure or supplemented with combinations of byproducts from black soldier fly

Substrate Preference of Black Soldier Fly Larvae Is Influenced by Rearing History

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
BSF larvae were reared under six different conditions: low, medium, or high larval density and on low, medium, and high‐water feeds to investigate feed choice behaviour. Larvae reared under all six conditions preferred substrate colonised by conspecifics. Low‐water feed caused slower larval growth and development.

How Do Group Size and Social Context Affect Per‐Capita Behavioral Responses in a Nasute Termite?

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Group living is often assumed to increase individual behavioral activity in eusocial insects through social facilitation. Using controlled bioassays with the termite Nasutitermes corniger, we show that increasing group size instead reduces per‐capita behavioral frequency, consistent with greater behavioral specialization. While antennation and grooming
