Evolution of insect migration and diapause

Migration strategies of insects.

Hugh Dingle
- 24 Mar 1972 - 
TL;DR: The similarities between birds and insects seem sufficient to indicate, at least provisionally, that the theory developed for insects applies also to birds with appropriate modifications for longer life span and more complex social behavior; comparisons between insects and fish lead to the same conclusion.

Cyclic Colonization in Predictably Ephemeral Habitats: A Template for Biological Control in Annual Crop Systems

Scott A. Wissinger
- 01 Sep 1997 - 
TL;DR: It is argued that ACSs are “predictably ephemeral” habitats that present a selective environment that is different from that commonly envisioned for disturbed or early successional habitats, and therefore, effective biological control strategies in ACSs must include a landscape ethic that provides an abundance of permanent habitats that can act as reservoirs for indigenous and introduced natural enemies.

Wing Dimorphism and Diapause in Gerris : Determination and Adaptive Significance

Kari Vepsäläinen
TL;DR: Water-striders of the genus Gerris Fabr consist of a small group of predatory bugs living on the water surface, and gerrids overwinter on dry land as imagos.

Fat combustion and metabolic rate of flying locusts (Schistocerca gregaria Forskål)

Torkel Weis-Fogh
- 14 Aug 1952 - 
TL;DR: The nature and the amount of fuel used by flying Schistocerca gregaria Forskål have been estimated from direct analyses of the total content of fat and glycogen in control groups and in the corresponding flying groups, i.e. groups which had flown continuously for several hours.

Host finding by aphids in the field

J. S. Kennedy, +2 more
- 01 Mar 1961 - 
TL;DR: The spectral energy distribution of the light reflected from various leaves and soils has been measured and corrected for ‘standard’ sunlit conditions, and then compared on the basis of Moericke's evidence that aphids of many species distinguish two parts of the spectrum as colours, alighting and probing in response to wavelengths greater than 500μ as discussed by the authors.
