However, sodium compensation behaviors such as mud-puddling have been observed in some Chapman R: The insects: structure and function. The Insects has been the standard textbook in the field since the first edition published over forty years ago. When the larvae are ready to pupate, the cases are closed with pads of silk similar to those produced by moths. It's comprised of four main substructures which are all interconnected. Hamilton; Comparative Vertebrate Endocrinology by Bentley; A general text book of entomology by Chapman; The Insects: Structure and function by Chapman. Herbivorous insects should expend considerable energy to compensate for sodium deficiency due to low sodium concentration in most inland plants upon which they feed. The maggots were raised in an environment simulating a wound that increased the production of the .. The insects of the order Embioptera are commonly known as web-spinners and produce silk from structures on their legs. The peptide, lucifencin, that belongs to the insect antimicrobial peptides (AMP), defensin family, was reported to be secreted in the hemolymph, body fat and ES of the maggots.
