Some Light and Temperature Effects on the Behavior of the Adult Pales Weevil, Hylobius Pales (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) [PDF]
Adult pales weevils react to light and temperature cues regarding their movements in pine plantations. They remain at the base of their host trees during the day and move onto the trees after dark. A drop in light intensity to 2 fc triggers this response.

When a male perceives a female: the effect of waxy components on the body surface on decision-making in the invasive pest weevil [PDF]
Insects use various semiochemicals for sexual communication and mate recognition; these can therefore be used to govern the behaviours of harmful pest species, and several candidate chemicals have been explored for this purpose. For the West Indian sweet
