called antlions? The name "antlion" best describes this insect’s predacious larval form—a mottled gray or brown creature with an oversized head‚ spiny jaws‚ short legs‚ and a soft body covered in bristles (see Figure 1). Figure 1. Antlion larva (Myrmeleon sp.). © 2005 Mark Swanson Since it preys primarily on ants‚ the antlion is‚ metaphorically speaking‚ a "lion" among ants. The larvae of some antlion species hide under bits of debris or wood and attack passing insects.

2010) D. melanogaster has four different stages in its life cycle. The first stage of D. melanogaster is the egg which can last for about one day; then turns into a larva. The larva stage last for about 7-8 days. Once the larva mature it will molt twice this period is called an instar. (Flagg‚ 1979) Instar means that the larva will shed a cuticle‚ mouth hooks‚ and spiracles and the period in which it goes through this growth phase of molting. D. melanogaster will go through 3 instars before

plate did not contract as we increased the MRR‚ and continued to move. Although the number of waves per larva was different‚ it was higher than the waves produced in Table 2‚ the ChR2+ group. Larvae from this plate contracted immediately when the light was turned on and only produced waves during the interval the light was not on. Because the light flashed a set amount of times per second‚ the larva was not able to complete a full wave. This became more evident as the light continued to flash in a shorter

cross works correctly you need to cross virgin females with males. In order to get virgin females you have to separate the parent flys from the eggs‚ and keep a careful eye on the eggs. After a week the eggs will become larva and about two weeks after they are layed the larva‚ now pupa will hatch. This is when time is of the essence.
