ON STEREOTROPISM IN TENEBRIO LARVÆ [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1924 Larvæ of Tenebrio while creeping show homostrophic responses, and stereotropic orientation to lateral contacts. Homostrophic orientation is inhibited by stereotropism. Both depend upon the anterior portion of the central nervous system. Stereotropic orientation due to unilateral contact, particularly at the anterior end, persists briefly after the ...

Effects of Polystyrene Diet on the Growth and Development of Tenebrio molitor
Toxics, 2022 In recent years, the role of Tenebrio molitor in degrading polystyrene foam through its gut microbes has become the focus of research. However, little literature has reported the effect of feeding on polystyrene foam on the growth and development of ...

Goal-directed behavior in Tenebrio molitor larvae
Scientific ReportsCan signs of intentional behavior be traced in an insect larva, traditionally thought to be driven only by mere reflexes? We trained Tenebrio molitor coleoptera larvae in a uniform Y-maze to prefer one target branch to get access to food, observing their

Chemical composition and nutrient digestibility of insect meal for broiler [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2020 To determine the chemical composition and digestibility of insect meal for poultry made from the larvae of Tenebrio molitor (TL) and nymphs of Gryllus assimilis (GAN) a total excreta collection test was carried out, substituting 20% of the reference diet
