Fine Structure of Ocelli in Sphinx Moths

Tissue and Cell, 1974
Abstract The internal ocelli of sphinx moths have receptor cells with a rhabdomere structure that is unique for insects. The rhabdomere consists of an invagination of a single receptor cell membrane to produce a cavity lined with microvilli and containing small lumen.

Insect Photoreceptor: An Internal Ocellus Is Present in Sphinx Moths

Science, 1971
Adult sphinx moths lack external ocelli. In Manduca sexta and other anocellate moths structures homologous to ocelli have been observed. Histological examination of such a structure in Manduca sexta has shown structural similarities to ocelli of other insects.

Metabolic Rate and Endothermy in Sphinx Moths

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1973
1. The rate of increase in thoracic temperature was strongly dependent on ambient temperature during pre-flight -warm-up in the sphinx moths,Hyles euphorbia andDeilephila elpenor (Figs. 1, 2). 2. The duration of pre-flight warm-up at 19–21 ° C was not correlated with mean body weight (0.3–3.5 g) in 13 species of sphinx moths (Kg. 3).

Temperature Regulation in the Sphinx Moth During Flight

Nature, 1965
THE ability of some insects to raise the thoracic temperature by muscular activity above that of the surrounding air is well known1. However, we have demonstrated recently that the internal heat produced is regulated during periods of activity2. The investigation reported here shows that the moth, Celerio lineata, maintains a relatively constant body ...

Nervous Control of the Heart During Thoracic Temperature Regulation in a Sphinx Moth

Science, 1970
Heating the thorax of the sphinx moth, Manduca sexta , evoked pulsations of the heart in the abdomen. These pulsations were of relatively high rate and amplitude, and traveled from the abdomen into the thorax. While heat was continuously applied exclusively to the thorax, thoracic temperature often stabilized and ...

Crustacean Cardioactive Peptide in the Sphinx Moth, Manduca sexta

Peptides, 1993
The isolation, identification, and actions of crustacean cardiactive peptide (CCAP) have been examined in the sphinx moth Manduca sexta. A sensitive and specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify CCAP-like immunoreactivity in the nervous system.

Flight Energetics of Sphinx Moths: Power Input During Hovering Flight

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1976
ABSTRACT The energetic cost of hovering flight was measured in sphinx moths from five species. Mean power input per unit mass (Pi/M) varied from 237·2 W kg−1 in Manduca sexta (Subfamily: Sphinginae), mean body mass 1·2 × 10−3 kg, to 327·9 W kg−1 in Deilephila elpenor (Subfamily: Macroglossinae) mean body mass 7×3 × 10−4 kg. Mean Pi/M for
