Conogethes Spirotricha
''Conogethes'' is a genus of moths in the subfamily Spilomelinae of the family (biology), family Crambidae. The currently 17 recognized species are distributed in the Indomalayan realm, Indomalayan and Australasian realm. The genus contains several species that are considered pest (organism), pests on economically important food plants such as ''Ipomoea'', ''Elettaria'' and ''Curcuma'', on ornamental plants like ''Alpinia'', and on ''Shorea'', ''Dipterocarpus'' and several genera of the pine family, which are used as timber trees. Within Spilomelinae, ''Conogethes'' is placed in the species-rich tribus Margaroniini, where it was found to be closely related to the genera ''Azochis'', ''Ghesquierellana'' and ''Megastes''. Imago, Imagines of ''Conogethes'' resemble in their wing pattern those of ''Marwitzia'', the ''Polygrammodes eleuata'' species complex and ''Syllepte incomptalis'', and to a lesser degree ''Dichocrocis'', ''Notarcha'' and ''Trigonobela''.

Conogethes Punctiferalis
''Conogethes punctiferalis'', the durian fruit borer or yellow peach moth, is a moth of the family Crambidae. Description Full-grown larvae are about 20 mm long. It is considered a pest on fruit trees. Adults have a wingspan of 14–20 mm. Adults are yellow with a dark pattern. Distribution It is found from India and Pakistan through south-east Asia to Australia. It has been reported from various parts of the world, mainly because larvae are imported alongside fruit. Records include Hawaii, Great Britain and the Netherlands. Diet The larvae feed on a wide range of plants, including ''Zea mays'', '' Livistona humilis'', ''Helianthus annuus'', ''Durio zibethinus'', ''Carica papaya'', ''Ricinus communis'', ''Planchonia careya'', ''Sorghum bicolor'', ''Macadamia integrifolia'', ''Prunus persica'', ''Citrus limon'', ''Nephelium lappaceum'', ''Solanum melongena'', '' Brachychiton acerifolium'' and ''Elettaria cardamomum ''Elettaria cardamomum'', commonly known as ...

Pine Family
The Pinaceae (), or pine family, are conifer trees or shrubs, including many of the well-known conifers of commercial importance such as cedars, firs, hemlocks, piñons, larches, pines and spruces. The family is included in the order Pinales, formerly known as Coniferales. Pinaceae have distinctive cones with woody scales bearing typically two ovules, and are supported as monophyletic by both morphological trait and genetic analysis. They are the largest extant conifer family in species diversity, with between 220 and 250 species (depending on taxonomic opinion) in 11 genera, and the second-largest (after Cupressaceae) in geographical range, found in most of the Northern Hemisphere, with the majority of the species in temperate climates, but ranging from subarctic to tropical. The family often forms the dominant component of boreal, coastal, and montane forests. One species, '' Pinus merkusii'', grows just south of the equator in Southeast Asia. Major centres of diversity ar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
List Of Feeding Behaviours
Feeding is the process by which organisms, typically animals, obtain food. Terminology often uses either the suffixes -vore, -vory, or -vorous from Latin ''vorare'', meaning "to devour", or -phage, -phagy, or -phagous from Greek φαγεῖν (), meaning "to eat". Evolutionary history The evolution of feeding is varied with some feeding strategies evolving several times in independent lineages. In terrestrial vertebrates, the earliest forms were large amphibious piscivores 400 million years ago. While amphibians continued to feed on fish and later insects, reptiles began exploring two new food types, other tetrapods (carnivory), and later, plants (herbivory). Carnivory was a natural transition from insectivory for medium and large tetrapods, requiring minimal adaptation (in contrast, a complex set of adaptations was necessary for feeding on highly fibrous plant materials). Evolutionary adaptations The specialization of organisms towards specific food sources is one of t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dichocrocis
''Dichocrocis'' is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. The genus was described by Julius Lederer in 1863.

Imago
In biology, the imago (Latin for "image") is the last stage an insect attains during its metamorphosis, its process of growth and development; it is also called the ''imaginal'' stage ("imaginal" being "imago" in adjective form), the stage in which the insect attains maturity. It follows the final ecdysis of the immature instars. In a member of the Ametabola or Hemimetabola, species in which metamorphosis is "incomplete", the final ecdysis follows the last immature or '' nymphal'' stage. In members of the Holometabola, in which there is a pupal stage, the final ecdysis follows emergence from the pupa A pupa (; : pupae) is the life stage of some insects undergoing transformation between immature and mature stages. Insects that go through a pupal stage are holometabolous: they go through four distinct stages in their life cycle, the stages th ..., after which the metamorphosis is complete, although there is a prolonged period of maturation in some species.
