Temperature as a predictor of survival of the pine processionary moth in the Italian AlpsAgricultural and Forest Entomology - Tập 9 Số 1 - Trang 65-72 - 2007
Emiliano Buffo, Andrea Battisti, Michael Stastny, Stig Larsson
Abstract1 The pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa is expanding its geographical range in Europe, as a consequence of enhanced winter survival under a warmer climate. A combination of daytime nest temperatures and night air temperatures determines the number of hours larvae are able to feed (hours above realized feeding thresho...... hiện toàn bộ

Microdot technology for individual marking of small arthropodsAgricultural and Forest Entomology - Tập 14 Số 2 - Trang 171-175 - 2012
Michael R. Whitehead, Rod Peakall
Individual mark–release–recapture is an important method for gathering data on insect movement, although it is limited by the constraints of tagging small insects with individual information.
Microdots, originally developed for covert security applications, are small polymer dis...... hiện toàn bộ
