Cryptolestes Pusillus

Xylocoris flavipes (Reuter) is one of the dominant predators of many stored product insect pest including Cryptolestes pusillus. The influence of temperature on predator development, survival and some selected life history parameters was determined. Eggs laid/female (27.27±2.52) and egg hatching rate (%) (88.25±2.19) were highest at 30°C and lowest at 20°C (5.43±1.19 and 30.79±4.63%) respectively but no eggs laid at 15°C. Mortality among immature stages (%) was highest (51.71±1.48) at 35°C and lowest (24.25c±1.14) at 25°C. Developmental times decreasing with the increasing of temperature. Maximum numbers of progeny/female/day (3.55±0.76) were produced at 25°C and minimum (0.83±0.04) were at 20°C.The sex ratios (% female) of X. flavipes were 47.04, 56.68, 51.66 and 50.07 for 20, 25, 30 and 35°C respectively. Survivorship of ovipositing females was highest at 25°C but lowest at 35°C respectively.

An analysis of biodemographic characteristics was undertaken under experimental conditions in Carabodes willmanni, the first study of its kind in the superfamily Carabodoidea. The species dominates the microarthropod fauna of dry Cladonia cover. Immature stages have a very soft integument and live within the decomposing lichen layer. The population is characterized by the following: (i) low fecundity, strongly density dependent; (ii) relatively long postembryonic development for such a small species, lasting 117 days at 20 °C; (iii) extended premoulting stage (pupation), lasting 28% of postembryonic development; (iv) high but very variable longevity, with values varying from 200 to 600 days between egg laying and death of the adult; (v) strong influence of temperature on fecundity, adult survival, and duration of embryonic and postembryonic developments: development is inhibited at 10 °C. Based on previously acquired information on the phenology of the population, a model for the life cycle under natural conditions is proposed. Periods favorable to development being greatly shortened by environmental factors, the duration of the cycle is lengthened and probably takes as much as 1 year under the harshest conditions. The success of C. willmanni in such an environment can be explained by the capacity of the immature stages to take advantage of the lichen substrate both as a source of food and as a means of protection against desiccation.[Journal translation]

Atomic Form Factor

Temperature affects both elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons in a crystal. The Debye-Waller factor, B, describes the influence of temperature on the elastic scattering of electrons, whereas the imaginary part of the (complex) atomic form factor, fc = fr + ifi, describes the influence of temperature on the inelastic scattering of electrons (i.e. absorption). In HRTEM simulations, two possible ways to include absorption are: (i) an approximate method in which absorption is described by a phenomenological constant, μ, i.e. fi; - μfr, with the real part of the atomic form factor, fr, obtained from Hartree-Fock calculations, (ii) a more accurate method in which the absorptive components, fi of the atomic form factor are explicitly calculated. In this contribution, the inclusion of both the Debye-Waller factor and absorption on HRTEM images of a (Oll)-oriented GaAs crystal are presented (using the EMS software.Fig. 1 shows the the amplitudes and phases of the dominant 111 beams as a function of the specimen thickness, t, for the cases when μ = 0 (i.e. no absorption, solid line) and μ = 0.1 (with absorption, dashed line).
