Morphology and chaetotaxy of the first instar larvae of six
The morphology and chaetotaxy of the first instar larvae of six species belonging to the genera Hipparchia, Kanetisa and Chazara are described. Specific characters are stated, drawn mainly from size, setal length and morphology, and the shape ofthe suranal plate. Several characters, other than chaetotaxy, that are of potential use in nymphalid systematics are discussed. The larval chaetotaxy is...
متن کاملDescriptions of the final instar larvae of seven Chinese Chlorogomphidae species, with taxonomic notes on adults (Odonata: Anisoptera).

The adult female of C. kitawakii is first described. Biological information on Chlorogomphidae is provided and a diagnosis of ...
متن کاملAgonistic behaviour and biogenic amines in shore crabs Carcinus maenas.
To investigate the role of certain neurohormones in agonistic behaviour, fights were staged between pairs of size-matched male shore crabs Carcinus maenas, and blood samples were taken immediately after the contests had been resolved. Samples were also taken from these crabs at rest (before and after fighting) and after walking on a treadmill. A control group of crabs also had samples taken on ...
متن کاملHow does agonistic behaviour differ in albino and pigmented fish?
In addition to hypopigmentation of the skin and red iris colouration, albino animals also display distinct physiological and behavioural alterations. However, information on the social interactions of albino animals is rare and has mostly been limited to specially bred strains of albino rodents and animals from unique environments in caves. Differentiating between the effects of albinism and do...
متن کاملResource quality afkcts the agonistic behaviour of territorial salamanders
Previous studies suggest that territories of red-backed salamanders, Plethodon cinereus, function as exclusive feeding areas, because prey are limited in availability during rainless periods. To test this idea, males were paired in laboratory chambers under three feeding conditions: (1) termites, a high-quality food resource, (2) ants, a low-quality resource and (3) ants plus termites. Termites...
