TL;DR: The Extended Specimen Network is a Strategy to Enhance US Biodiversity Collections, Promote Research and Education and to enhance research and Education.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny and evolution of pharmacophagy in tiger moths (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae).
TL;DR: The results suggest that PA specialization may have arisen early in the phylogeny of the subfamily Arctiinae and that facultative larval pharmacophagous behaviors are the derived condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparative survey of proboscis morphology and associated structures in fruit-piercing, tear-feeding, and blood-feeding moths in Calpinae (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)
TL;DR: This survey indicates morphology provides powerful prediction, but not proof of lepidopteran adult food habits, suggesting proboscis morphology may not be strongly correlated with feeding behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Insects: An Outline of Entomology, 5th Edition
TL;DR: Gullan and Cranston's text is appropriate and effective for teaching introductory entomology at the undergraduate and graduate levels, yet also provides specimen preservation techniques and identification tools needed for basic laboratory exercises.
Journal ArticleDOI
To be or not to be… a vampire: a matter of sensillum numbers in Calyptra thalictri?
TL;DR: It is proposed that the reduction in olfactory sensilla sensitive to vertebrate-related compounds may be correlated to an increase in the likelihood of a male C. thalictri to take a blood meal.
