Guides
Acroneuria abnormis
Common Stone
Acroneuria abnormis, commonly known as the common stone, is a species of stonefly in the family Perlidae. It is widely distributed across North America. The species is notable for its drumming behavior during mating, which produces species-specific vibrational signals used for identification and mate recognition.
Agrilus subcinctus
Native Ash Borer
Agrilus subcinctus, commonly known as the native ash borer, is a North American jewel beetle (Buprestidae) that develops in ash (Fraxinus) trees. Unlike the invasive emerald ash borer (A. planipennis), this species is restricted to dead ash twigs for larval development. Adults are active from late May through mid-August, with peak flight in June. The species serves as host for multiple hymenopteran parasitoids and has been studied for its distinct mating behavior, which involves visual aerial orientation followed by contact chemical signal evaluation.
Aniulus
Aniulus is a genus of North American millipedes in the family Parajulidae, comprising at least 20 described species. The genus belongs to the order Julida, characterized by cylindrical bodies and typically inhabiting forest floor habitats. Detailed behavioral studies exist for at least one species, Aniulus bollmani, documenting complex courtship and mating behaviors.
Anthocoris antevolens
minute pirate bug
Anthocoris antevolens is a species of minute pirate bug in the family Anthocoridae, native to North America. Research has documented significant geographic variation in mating behavior among populations from British Columbia, Washington, and California, with asymmetric compatibility patterns in interpopulation crosses. Like other Anthocoris species, it is presumed to be a predatory true bug, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented.
Arhopalus
burnt pine longhorn beetle (A. ferus), black pine sawyer (A. rusticus)
Arhopalus is a genus of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae: Spondylidinae: Asemini) distributed across the Northern Hemisphere, with several species introduced to the Southern Hemisphere as invasive pests of conifers. The genus comprises approximately 20 described species, with A. rusticus and A. ferus being the most extensively studied due to their economic importance. Species develop in dead or fire-damaged conifer wood, with some exhibiting strong attraction to burnt pine volatiles. Several species produce male-emitted aggregation-sex pheromones containing fuscumol and geranylacetone. Invasive populations in New Zealand, Australia, South America, and South Africa require monitoring at ports and sawmills for timber export compliance.

Craspedosomatidae is a family of millipedes in the order Chordeumatida. The family contains at least 30 genera and approximately 210 described species. Adult individuals typically possess 30 body segments (counting the collum and telson), though some species have 28. Members of this family are known for complex male genitalia involved in sperm transfer during mating.
Culiseta inornata
Winter Marsh Mosquito, Unadorned American Cool Weather Mosquito
Culiseta inornata, commonly known as the winter marsh mosquito, is a species of mosquito in the family Culicidae. It has been extensively studied for its sensory physiology, mating behavior, and osmoregulatory adaptations to brackish water habitats. The species exhibits complex behavioral mechanisms for processing conflicting sensory stimuli and has been documented in central and southern California, where it occurs in marsh and brackish water environments.
Disholcaspis prehensa
clasping twig gall wasp
Disholcaspis prehensa is a gall-inducing cynipid wasp native to California that induces distinctive galls on scrub oak and leather oak. The species exhibits heterogony, alternating between sexual and asexual generations that produce two morphologically different gall types. The asexual generation forms conspicuous mushroom-shaped twig galls with clasping bases, while the sexual generation produces small, hidden bud galls.

nevadica knausii
Knaus's Tiger Beetle
Ellipsoptera nevadica knausii is a subspecies of tiger beetle in the family Carabidae (subfamily Cicindelinae). It is commonly known as Knaus's Tiger Beetle. The subspecies is distributed across North America, including Canada, the United States, and Mexico. Like other tiger beetles, it is a fast-running, visually oriented predator active in open habitats.
Eurycotis
Eurycotis is a genus of cockroaches in the family Blattidae, distributed across the Americas from the southern United States through Central America to South America. Members possess a distinctive defensive capability: both sexes harbor large abdominal glands that secrete a milky, acidic fluid when threatened, which can be released as an oozing liquid or projected as a spray up to three feet. The genus includes at least 20 species in Cuba alone, with Eurycotis floridana being the most extensively studied species. Research on E. floridana has documented detailed mating behaviors involving spermatophore transfer and courtship rituals.
Leptoglossus
leaf-footed bugs
Leptoglossus is a genus of true bugs in the leaf-footed bug family Coreidae, tribe Anisoscelini. Species are characterized by leaflike dilations of the hind tibia, a diagnostic trait of the genus. The genus is distributed throughout the Americas, with some introduced populations in Europe and Asia.

oriental broad-nosed weevils, ash weevils, grey weevils, Sri Lankan weevils
Myllocerus is a large genus of oriental broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae, comprising at least 330 described species. Species within this genus are predominantly distributed across the Indian subcontinent and surrounding regions, with several species recognized as significant agricultural pests. Notable pest species include Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus (Sri Lankan weevil), M. maculosus (cotton grey weevil), and M. viridanus (ash weevil), which attack diverse crop plants including cereals, legumes, vegetables, and fruit trees. The genus exhibits typical weevil morphology with broad rostrums and root-feeding larval stages combined with foliage-feeding adults.
Myllocerus undecimpustulatus
Sri Lanka weevil, yellow-headed ravenous weevil
Myllocerus undecimpustulatus is an oriental broad-nosed weevil (Curculionidae: Entiminae) native to Sri Lanka and the Indian subcontinent. It is a polyphagous pest with a wide host range that has established invasive populations in Florida, USA, since at least 2000. The species exhibits distinctive sexual behavior including female abdominal rocking as a mate-strength test and prolonged copulatory guarding by males. It shows seasonal variation in cold tolerance and feeding activity, with winter-collected adults consuming more leaf material after cold exposure than summer-collected individuals.
Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus
Sri Lankan weevil
Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus, the Sri Lankan weevil, is a polyphagous curculionid pest native to Sri Lanka that has spread to India, Pakistan, and the United States. It was first identified in Florida in 2000 on Citrus species and has since established populations in the state. The species exhibits sexual dimorphism with females typically larger than males. Research has documented its cold tolerance limitations, mating behavior involving female abdominal rocking and prolonged copulatory guarding, and susceptibility to certain biopesticides.
Nemomydas
mydas flies
Nemomydas is a genus of large mydas flies (Diptera: Mydidae) comprising at least 23 described species distributed primarily in the Americas, with one species (N. gruenbergi) recorded from East Asia. The genus was established by Curran in 1934. Species exhibit considerable diversity in distribution, ranging from the southwestern United States through Central America to the Caribbean and South America.
Palaemon vulgaris
Marsh Grass Shrimp, Common American Prawn, Common Grass Shrimp, Marsh Shrimp
Palaemon vulgaris is a small, transparent caridean shrimp native to the western Atlantic Ocean. Adults reach less than 5 cm in length and display distinctive orange pigmentation on the eyestalks. The species has been studied for its specialized swimming mechanics, employing metachronal beating of pleopods and drag-reducing mechanisms during locomotion. It occupies coastal and estuarine habitats from Cape Cod Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.

tenuispinus
Pogonomyrmex tenuispinus is a species of harvester ant in the genus Pogonomyrmex. Like other members of this genus, it is a seed-collecting ant native to arid regions. The species was described by Auguste Forel in 1914. As a harvester ant, it likely participates in seed dispersal and ecosystem engineering through nest construction, though specific ecological studies for this species are limited.

Polyzosteriinae is a subfamily of cockroaches within the family Blattidae. The subfamily includes species with documented allopatric population structures, such as the Tasmanian endemic Polyzosteria yingina, which exhibits strongly separated alpine and coastal populations. Mating behavior has been studied in at least one species, Eurycotis floridana, revealing courtship rituals and copulatory sequences. The subfamily is taxonomically established within Blattodea but detailed biological information remains limited to individual species studies.
Pyrgota undata
waved light fly
Pyrgota undata, commonly known as the waved light fly, is a species of fly in the family Pyrgotidae. It is a wasp-mimicking species that has been observed in mating pairs engaging in distinctive 'French kissing' behavior. The species has been documented in Missouri glade habitats and at bioblitz events in prairie ecosystems.
Saltella
Saltella is a genus of small flies in the family Sepsidae. The genus includes five described species, with Saltella sphondylii being the most studied due to its unusual mating behavior. Research on this species has revealed significant costs of copulation to male longevity, making it a model organism for studying sexual conflict and the evolution of mating systems.
Stenacidia violacea
Stenacidia violacea is a springtail species in the family Sminthurididae, characterized by distinctive coloration with yellowish body and purple lateral markings. The species exhibits sexual dimorphism in coloration, with females sometimes appearing dark purple. A notable behavioral trait involves antenna contact during mating, described as resembling a 'kiss'. The species has a broad distribution spanning the Nearctic and Palearctic regions, with a recent range extension to Iran documented in 2019.
Stenomacra
bordered plant bugs
Stenomacra is a genus of bordered plant bugs in the family Largidae, established by Stål in 1870. The genus contains at least eight described species distributed primarily in the Americas, with records from the southwestern United States through Central America to South America, including Ecuador and Panama. Species in this genus are associated with vegetation, particularly flowering plants, and have been observed feeding on plant sap and honeydew. Some species have been studied for their mating behavior and ecological roles in agroecosystems.
Stenotus
plant bug
Stenotus is a genus of plant bugs in the family Miridae, comprising species that are primarily associated with grasses and cereal crops. The genus includes notable agricultural pests, particularly Stenotus rubrovittatus (sorghum plant bug or pecky rice bug), which causes significant damage to rice and other Poaceae. Species in this genus exhibit specialized host plant relationships and distinct reproductive behaviors tied to plant phenology.
Trichiotinus rufobrunneus
Florida flower scarab
Trichiotinus rufobrunneus is a species of flower scarab beetle endemic to Florida, commonly known as the Florida flower scarab. It belongs to the genus Trichiotinus, a North American endemic group of trichiine scarabs. The species is associated with the flowers of Opuntia australis (Florida pricklypear cactus), an endemic plant, and has been observed mating within these flowers. Its distribution is limited to Florida, making it a species of conservation concern due to habitat loss from urban development and agriculture.
Trichoton sordidum
Trichoton sordidum is a small, flightless darkling beetle (Tenebrionidae) native to the Sonoran Desert borderlands of southern Arizona and northern Mexico. The species exhibits sophisticated behavioral thermoregulation, including photonegativity and temperature-dependent activity patterns. Under resource limitation or environmental stress, individuals form adhesive aggregations or physical clumps of 2–10 beetles as a threat evasion mechanism. Dispersal follows cohesive patterns consistent with Minimum Risk Distribution models.
