Apparatus for studying nocturnal patterns of oviposition and larval eclosion, and diel patterns of moth emergence
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 July 2009
Extract
A photographic apparatus is described for obtaining a record of oviposition and larval eclosion at intervals through the night. By the use of electronic flash a negative silhouette image is produced and the method used does not appear to disturb the moths during oviposition. A second apparatus incorporating a moving pen is also described for studying and recording the times of emergence of moths from their pupae.
