Behavioral adaptation to environmental threats and subsequent social transmission of adaptive behavior has evolutionary implications. In Drosophila, exposure to parasitoid wasps leads to a sharp decline in oviposition. We show that exposure to predator elicits both an acute and learned oviposition depression, mediated through the visual system. However, long-term persistence of oviposition depr...
Oviposition and eclosion periods for Ixodes didelphidis were observed under two temperatures (25 degrees C and 27 degrees C) and 90-95% humidity. Although there was a significant increase in the eclosion period (p<0.05) and a tendency to increase the oviposition period at 25 degrees C, there was neither significant differences in the interval (days), until maximum peak of eclosion nor in the nu...
While many studies focus on how animals use public information, the dynamics of information spread and maintenance within groups, i.e. the 'ecology of information', have received little attention. Here we use fruitflies trained to lay eggs on specific substrates to implement information into groups containing both trained and untrained individuals. We quantify inter-individual interactions and ...
The fecundity, daily progeny and longevity of Gryon gallardoi (Brethes) (Hym.; Scelionidae) were determined under laboratory conditions, using Spartocera dentiventris (Berg) (Hem.; Coreidae) eggs as host. Nineteen G. gallardoi females and 34 males were reared at 25 +/- 1 degrees C, with a 12 h photophase, fed on a 10% aqueous honey solution and provided with 25-30 S. dentiventris eggs daily. Th...
Studies on the duration of the oviposition and incubation periods of Boophilus decoloratus (Koch, 1844) revealed that these non-parasitic periods are temperature dependent, increase in temperature causing shortening of the periods. Humidity had no effect on duration of either the oviposition or the incubation periods. The relation between the mass of engorged female ticks and that of the eggs t...
the relationship between female oviposition preference and offspring performance is a key area of study on the evolution of host specificity. this study investigates host prefer-ence of the polyphagous hover fly syrphus ribesii (diptera: syrphidae) and compares it with some components of its offspring`s performance. females and offspring were tested on six naturally used aphid hosts (blackberry...
Secondary metabolites from Dysoxylum malabaricum and Dysoxylum beddomei were tested against mature and immature stage of the mosquito vector Anopheles stephensi under laboratory conditions. The triterpenes 3beta,24,25-trihydroxycycloartane and beddomeilactone from D. malabaricum and D. beddomei showed strong larvicidal, pupicidal and adulticidal activity. They also affected the reproductive pot...
effects of mentha arvensis l. and mentha pulegium l. essential oils were investigated against oviposition deterrence, egg hatching and adults' mortality of callosobruchus maculatus f. essential oils were obtained by dry leaves that were subjected to hydrodistilation using a modified clevenger-type apparatus. all experiments were conducted at 25±1ºc, 65±5 % r.h. in the dark condition with 5...
Mating and oviposition behaviour of brinjal shoot fruit borer (BSFB), Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee (Lepidoptera:Pyralidae) were carried out in the laboratory on plants maintaining temperature (20-250C) relative humidity (80-85%). The moths found active at night for mating oviposition. usually occurred late but a few to continue up 8.0 hour day. Maximum completed between 4.00 6.00 period ranged f...
The diel oviposition cycle in Aedes albopictus (Skuse) was investigated under natural conditions at a site at Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. The pattern of egg laying demonstrated was essentially unimodal, most of the activity occurring between 1300-1900 hrs. with a sharp peak during the hour before sunset (1700-1800 hrs). Oviposition also occurred immediately after sunrise but the level of activity is...
