Transfer, subsequent movement, and fate of sperm in the tobacco hornworm moth, Manduca sexta
Physiological entomology (Print), 2021 During mating in the Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies), sperm are passed to the female via a copulation in which the male transfers a large and often complex spermatophore over the major part of an hour or more. Subsequently, over the course of an hour

Control of Tobacco Hornworms with Foliar Insecticides 1997A [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1998 Abstract The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the efficacy of foliar applications of Orthene 75 SP, Tracer 4 SC, and Dipel 2X against tobacco hornworms in the field. Plots were established at the Central Crops Research Station, Clayton, NC, on 9 May in a field with a Norfolk loamy sand soil. Individual plots were 4 rows (1.14
