Odor-modulated upwind flight of the sphinx moth, Manduca sexta L.

Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 1991
1.

Temperature Regulation of the Sphinx Moth, Manduca Sexta

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1971
ABSTRACT The sphinx moth, Manduca sexta, maintained an average thoracic temperature of 40–42°C during free flight in ambient temperatures (TA) of about 16·33°C. In the extremes, the excess of thoracic temperature TTh over TA varied from a mean of 25°C at 12·5°C, to a mean of 8°C at a TA of 35°C.

Neurotransmitters and Neuropeptides in the Olfactory Pathway of the Sphinx Moth Manduca Sexta

Like other animals, insects have many and diverse chemical “messengers” in their nervous systems. A growing list of synaptic neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, neuropeptides, and neurohormones -- collectively “transmitters” -- prompts efforts to seek physiological roles and mechanisms of action for these substances.
