Here we report such a rare case, larva group Hemerobiidae, an aphidlion, piece Eocene Baltic amber (about 40 million years old). It is together three possible prey ...

The paper describes the monitoring of phytosanitary conditions in different regions Almaty region (Kazakhstan) and demonstrates large population cruciferous fleas (Phyllotreta cruciferae) on rapeseed plants, which reaches 7-9 spec./m2, exceeding economic injury level (3-5 spec./m2). disease is observed to spread wheat barley seeds. Proceeding from this, study aims develop effective protection m...

Many animals, especially arthropods, use substrateborne vibration signals in communication (Hill 2008, 2009). Substrate-borne vibrations have been demonstrated as an important mode of communication in bugs (Virant-Doberlet & Cokl 2004; Cocroft & Rodriguez 2005; Rodriguez et al. 2008), lacewings (Henry 1994; Henry et al. 2002), wolf spiders (Uetz & Roberts 2002; Hebets & Papaj 2005; Gibson & Uet...
