Compensation by locusts for changes in dietary nutrients: behavioural mechanismsABSTRACT. The detailed behavioural mechanisms underlying an instance of compensation for changes in dietary nutrients are described for the first time in an insect. Nymphs of Locusta migratoria L. were given one of four artificial diets on the third day of the fifth instar, and their feeding patterns recorded in detail for 12 h. The diets ...

Effects of sugar feeding on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in a parasitoid waspSummary Lifetime patterns of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism were compared in starved and sucrose‐fed adults of the parasitoid Macrocentrus grandii (Goidanich) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). As expected, sucrose‐fed individuals lived longer than did starved individuals. Macrocentrus grandii males and females eclose... ... hiện toàn bộ

Decreased immune response as a proximate cost of copulation and oviposition in a damselflyAbstract.Males and females of the Japanese calopterygid damselfly, Matrona basilaris japonica Fester, showed a rapid (within 24 h), and significant reduction in immune system function (encapsulation response) after reproductive activity (copulation or oviposition). A similar, but non‐significant, change occurred in males that conducted energetica... ... hiện toàn bộ

Lesions in haematophagous flies after feeding on rabbits immunized with fly tissuesAbstract Stomoxys calcitrans were fed on rabbits previously immunized with various of the fly's tissues. Mortality after 15 days of daily feeding on rabbits immunized with flight muscle proteins was twice that of the control flies fed on an untreated rabbit. Other effects included paralysis of the legs, unequal deposition of the endocutic... ... hiện toàn bộ

Multicomponent alarm pheromones in the mandibular glands of major workers of the African weaver ant, Oecophylla longinodaABSTRACT. The complex system of alarm communication in Oecophylla longinoda is described. The mandibular gland secretion of major workers releases in other major workers a complex pattern of behaviour, which includes components of alerting, attraction and biting. The main constituents of the secretion are hexanal and 1‐hexanol, which relea...

Comparing the effects of five naturally occurring monosaccharide and oligosaccharide sugars on longevity and carbohydrate nutrient levels of a parasitic phorid fly, Pseudacteon tricuspisAbstract. The longevity and nutrient levels of Pseudacteon tricuspis provided with 1 m solutions of five naturally occurring sugars, fructose, glucose, sucrose, trehalose and melezitose, are compared. All but melezitose, result in significant increases in the longevity of P. tricuspis in compar...

Vibrational communication of the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys)Abstract Communication with substrate‐borne vibrational signals is common in the family Pentatomidae, although this aspect of biology of the invasive pestHalyomorpha halys Stål remains unexplored so far. In the present study, the behaviour of single animals and pairs is observed on a bean plant and a loudspeaker membrane at the same time as... ... hiện toàn bộ
