Leaf-footed bugs choose to lose legs
If you want to meet a truly tough fish, buy a ticket to Lake Magadi, Kenya. Here, the Magadi tilapia swim happily in the hot, alkaline waters of the lake, where oxygen levels soar and plummet daily and water chemistry pushes the boundaries of acid– base regulation. Few fish can survive such an extreme aquatic environment and this has attracted comparative physiologists for decades to the town o...
متن کاملPerformance consequences of food mixing in two passion vine leaf-footed bugs, Holymenia clavigera (Herbst, 1784) and Anisoscelis foliacea marginella (Dallas, 1852) (Hemiptera; Coreidae).
Holymenia clavigera (Herbst) and Anisoscelis foliacea marginella (Dallas) (Hemiptera: Coreidae: Anisoscelini) are distributed in southern Brazil and use various passion vine species (Passifloraceae) as host-plants. Preliminary observations indicate a high coexistence of these species in terms of host-plant use; in addition, there is a strong similarity regarding egg and nymph morphology. In thi...
متن کاملThe Coreidae of Honduras (Hemiptera: Coreidae)
BACKGROUND Coreidae bugs are mostly sap-sucking insects feeding on a variety of plants. Despite their abundance and economic importance in Honduras there is little information on the species, their distribution and affected crops. Since knowledge of pest species allows for better management of crops, we aimed to document the diversity of this economically important group. Specimens from four en...
متن کاملAdult nutrition, but not inbreeding, affects male primary sexual traits in the leaf‐footed cactus bug Narnia femorata (Hemiptera: Coreidae)
Adverse conditions may be the norm rather than the exception in natural populations. Many populations experience poor nutrition on a seasonal basis. Further, brief interludes of inbreeding can be common as population density fluctuates and because of habitat fragmentation. Here, we investigated the effects of poor nutrition and inbreeding on traits that can be very important to reproductive suc...
متن کاملComparison of management strategies for squash bugs (Hemiptera: Coreidae) in watermelon.
Two watermelon pest management practices, a squash trap crop and a standard recommendation using soil-applied carbofuran, were compared using large-scale field plots to assess trap crop suitability as a replacement for the standard in 2000, 2001, and 2002. In both systems, foliar insecticide applications were used to control squash bugs when populations exceeded threshold levels. During 2001 an...
