Journal ArticleDOI
Copulation with immature females increases male fitness in cannibalistic widow spiders
TL;DR: It is shown that these males can increase their reproductive success by copulating with final-instar, immature females after piercing the female's exoskeleton to access her newly developed sperm storage organs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of grape vine cultivars on Lobesia botrana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) population levels
TL;DR: A significant effect of cultivar on numbers of trapped males in most years, and a cultivar effect on female host choice are shown, which show that cultivar blend within the vineyard can affect the distribution pattern of the pest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental patterns in the polyembryonic parasitoid wasp Copidosoma koehleri.
TL;DR: The development of the polyembryonic wasp Copidosoma koehleri in its host Phthorimaea opercullela is studied and it is found that female broods were larger than male broods during development and also upon emergence, and body size was larger for males during development as well as upon emergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of polyembryony in parasitoid wasps.
TL;DR: It is concluded that reducing the cost of egg limitation is especially important when large broods are favoured, and that the brood‐size adjustment hypothesis is likely to interact with other selective forces favouring polyembryony.
Journal ArticleDOI
Red anemone guild flowers as focal places for mating and feeding by Levant glaphyrid beetles

TL;DR: Findings support the hypothesis that males and females meet by orienting to large red displays, and suggest that visits to large flowers also yield foraging benefits.
