ANTENNAL SENSILLA OF CLOVER HEAD WEEVIL HYPERA-MELES-(F) (COLEOPTERA-CURCULIONIDAE)

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INSECT MORPHOLOGY & EMBRYOLOGY, 5(6), 349–355.

By: C. Smith*, J. Frazier, L. Coons & W. Knight

TL;DR: Scanning electron microscopy of the antennal clubs of the clover head weevil revealed a dense receptor field composed of sensilla trichodea, sensilla basiconica, and sensilla styloconica, suggesting that these sensilla are utilized in host reception during weevil antenNal tapping.

ATTRACTION OF CLOVER HEAD WEEVIL, HYPERA MELES, TO FLOWER BUD VOLATILES OF SEVERAL SPECIES OF TRIFOLIUM

JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 22(11), 1517–1521.

By: C. Smith n, J. Frazier * & W. Knight*

TL;DR: Steam distilled volatiles from flower buds of white clover, Trifolium repens, attracted significantly greater numbers of female clover head weevils, Hypera meles, than males, in laboratory bioassays, suggesting that attraction is regulated by olfactory receptors located on weevil antennal clubs.
