Whatever Happened to IPM
Journal ArticleDOI
Development modeling of Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae).
Amanda Roe,Leon G. Higley +1 more
TL;DR: A series of experiments were conducted with Lucilia sericata, a forensically important blow fly species, that met the requirements needed to create statistically valid development models and illustrates the advantages of large datasets in modeling Lucilia Sericata development and the need for curvilinear models in describing development at environmental temperatures near the biological minima and maxima.
Journal ArticleDOI
Curatorial implications of Ophyra capensis (Order Diptera, Family Muscidae) puparia recovered from the body of the Blessed Antonio Patrizi, Monticiano, Italy (Middle Ages).
TL;DR: Analysis of insect remains associated with the body of a unique medieval mummy of religious significance, that of the Blessed Antonio Patrizi da Monticiano, illustrates how collection and identification of insects associated with human remains can distinguish between historical decomposition versus issues of modern curatorial concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral niche partitioning in a sympatric tiger beetle assemblage and implications for the endangered Salt Creek tiger beetle
TL;DR: Results of this study strongly indicate that competition among these species for resources has been reduced by the adaptation of different thermoregulatory behaviors such as spending time in shallow water, avoiding the sun during the hottest parts of the day, and by positioning their body against or away from the soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Web-Based Key Character and Classification Instruction for Teaching Undergraduate Students Insect Identification
Douglas A. Golick,Tiffany Heng-Moss,Allen L. Steckelberg,David W. Brooks,Leon G. Higley,David Fowler +5 more
TL;DR: Results of this study support that short web-based insect identification exercises can improve insect identification performance and a discussion of how these results can be used in teaching and future research on biological identification is included.
