One major explanation for gas exchange pattern variation in terrestrial insects is to effect a respiratory water loss (RWL) saving. To test this, we measured the rates of CO2 and H2O release ( and , respectively) in a previously unstudied, mesic cockroach, Aptera fusca, and compared gas exch...

متن کاملPerformance of Goliath Cockroach Gel against German Cockroach (blattodea: Blattellidae) and a Mixed Population of American Cockroach and Australian Cockroach (blattodea: Blattidae) in the Field
Field studies were conducted to compare the performance of Goliath® Cockroach Gel (fipronil) and a spray treatment of Cislin Residual Insecticide (deltamethrin). These were carried out in Sydney, NSW, Australia against Blattella germanica (L), and Townsville, Queensland, against a mixed population of Periplaneta americana (L.) and Periplaneta australasiae (L). In both studies fipronil (0.05% AI...
متن کاملThe Blattodea s.s. (Insecta, Dictyoptera) of the Guiana Shield
Here we provide a checklist of cockroach species known from areas within the Guiana Shield based on literature records and new field collection. We give records of sixteen species collected in Guyana, eight of which are new records for Guyana and one of which is a new generic record for the entire Guiana Shield. We also provide a description for a geographically disparate species of Calhypnorna...
