  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

The enormous success of the order Coleoptera is reflected by a rich diversity of life- styles, behaviors, morphological, and physiological adaptions. All these evolutionary adap- tions that have been driven by a variety of parameters over the last about 300 million years, OPEN ACCESS make the Coleoptera an ideal field to study the evolution of the brain on the interface Citation: Kollmann M, Schmidt R, Heuer CM, between the basic bauplan of the insect brain and the adaptions that occurred.

Wataru Kojima,1,* Yukio Ishikawa1 and Takuma Takanashi2 1Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences; The University of Tokyo; Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo Japan; 2Department of Forest Entomology; Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute; Tsukuba, Ibaraki Japan Pupae of some insects produce sounds or vibrations, but the function of the sounds/vibrations has not been clarified in most cases. Recently, we found vibratory communication between pupae and larvae of a group-living beetle Trypoxylus dichotoma, which live in humus soil. The vibratory signals produced by pupae were shown to deter approaching larvae, thereby protecting themselves. In the present study, we tested our hypothesis that pupal signals are mimics of vibratory noises associated with foraging of moles, the most common predators of T. dichotoma. Mole vibrations played back in laboratory experiments deterred larval approaches in the same way as pupal signals. These findings suggest that to deter conspecific larvae, pupae of T. dichotoma may have exploited a preexisting response of larvae to predator vibrations by © emitting2012 deceptive signals.

Insect pupae are generally considered inactive and quiescent, but approaching larvae.5 We tested if the pupal vibrations function as some of them generate air-borne sounds and/or substrate-borne deterring signals to larvae. Pupal cells harboring a live pupa were vibrations.1-4 In 1948, Hinton reviewed the mechanisms of less likely to be broken by larvae than those harboring a dead sound/vibration production in the pupae of Lepidoptera,2 and pupa.5 When pupal vibrations were played back near to vacant suggested a defensive function against predators.

  • Beetles As an Income Source in Southwest Cameroon

Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] SUMMARY This paper describes the use of beetles (forest insects) as an income source in the Southwest region of Cameroon and the contribution of this activity to rural livelihood improvement. Data was obtained through interviews conducted in 96 households in 6 villages. We found that the beetle trade provides complementary household income to forest dependent populations who rely on agriculture, hunting and gathering for their livelihoods. Income obtained from insect trade supports basic household needs and facilitates the acquisition of some farming inputs, but the sector remains informal. Considering the socioeconomic importance of this sector, insect trade should be formalized in order to manage the resource sustainably, increase benefits from their exploitation and concomitantly foster their impact on poverty alleviation and community- based conservation of the relic forest patches in the region.

  • Origin and Diversification of Dung Beetles in Madagascar

Received: 25 February 2011; in revised form: 8 April 2011 / Accepted: 13 April 2011 / Published: 20 April 2011 Abstract: Madagascar has a rich fauna of dung beetles (Scarabaeinae and Aphodiinae) with almost 300 species described to date. Like most other taxa in Madagascar, dung beetles exhibit an exceptionally high level of endemism (96% of the species). Here, we review the current knowledge of the origin and diversification of Malagasy dung beetles. Based on molecular phylogenies, the extant dung beetles originate from eight colonizations, of which four have given rise to extensive radiations. These radiations have occurred in wet forests, while the few extant species in the less successful radiations occur in open and semi-open habitats. We discuss the likely mechanisms of speciation and the ecological characteristics of the extant communities, emphasizing the role of adaptation along environmental gradients and allopatric speciation in generating the exceptionally high beta diversity in Malagasy dung beetles. Phylogeographic analyses of selected species reveal complex patterns with evidence for genetic introgression between old taxa. The introduction of cattle to Madagascar 1500 years ago created a new abundant resource, onto which a few species have shifted and thereby been able to greatly expand their geographical ranges.
