Oviposition orientation of the longicorn beetle Hylotrupes bajulus
1994 - IRG/WP 94-10076
The oviposition behavior of Hylotrupes bajulus with regard to the selection of an oviposition site was studied. The orientation of fertilized females towards a pine block and in choice tests (between pine wood and other materials) was observed. In the latter tests certain sensory organs of the beetles were inactivated. Scanning electron photographs were taken of the ovipositor. They show different...

Nondestructive analysis of oviposition of the bamboo powderpost beetle Dinoderus minutus using acoustic emission and X-ray CT
2017 - IRG/WP 17-10889
The bamboo powderpost beetle Dinoderus minutus is a major pest of dry bamboo culms in Japan. In this study, acoustic emission (AE) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) was applied to the nondestructive analysis of the ovipositional behavior of adult D. minutus beetles inside bamboo pieces. Newly mated adult females were individually exposed to oviposition bamboo pieces prepared from culms of Phyllos...
