Abstract Seasonal plasticity in insects is often triggered by temperature and photoperiod changes. When climatic conditions become sub-optimal, might undergo reproductive diapause, a form of seasonal delaying the development organs activities. During cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profile, which covers insect body surface, also change to protect from desiccation cold temperature. However, CHCs are important cues signals for mate recognition changes CHC composition affect recognition. In present...
Summary In the study a comparison is made between results of two sampling procedures, both based on application same hand‐held suction apparatus. Sampling was aimed at spiders, and carried out alfalfa fields. first method applied to an enclosure 0.48 m 2 . The enclosed area sampled intensively, which facilitated by removal vegetation. second transect procedure during apparatus with 0.01 nozzle single unenclosed points 1 apart. A linear series 48 such subsamples comprised transect, thus total...
Abstract. Body measurements of 110 beef cows 9 breeds (Hungarian Simmental, Hereford, Aberdeen Angus, Red Lincoln Red, Shaver, Charolais, Limousin and Blonde d’Aquitaine) were taken in December 2004. The absolute, relative measurement indices moreover correlations between age, live weight evaluated compared for the mentioned breeds. Animals study born 1989 2002, kept on same condition peat-bog soil pasture at Keszthely. Significant differences (P<0.05) found among most body measurements....
The dispersal of fish into distant and isolated habitats remains a topic continuous discussion in the field biogeography. This is particularly relevant due to perceived limitation movement what known as active dispersal. Fish migration often confined interconnected water bodies, underscoring significance for inhabiting aquatic habitats. However, empirical evidence natural (i.e. not human‐mediated) mechanism has been limited. Here we explore provide waterbird‐mediated endozoochory possible...

The invasive spotted wing Drosophila (SWD) represents new challenges for European and North American fruit producers. aim of our study was to examine wine grape cultivar susceptibility this pest melanogaster-type (MTD) by surveying drosophilid populations using field traps conducting emergence tests. We assessed fly development from intact artificially injured berries collected four cultivars. Berries were incubated individually in pooled samples evaluate infestation patterns potential...
Our study reports the first occurrence of Zaprionus indianus Gupta, 1970 (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in Hungary, representing northernmost European record this thermophilic species. Specimens were captured October 2023 during a large-scale Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura, 1931) monitoring program conducted sweet cherry orchards north-central Hungary. A total five individuals (one female and four males) caught at two different 1 km apart, using modified pan bottle traps baited with apple cider...
Abstract Background The variegated fruit fly, Phortica variegata (Drosophilidae: Steganinae), is native to Europe and has emerged as a major vector of ocular nematosis caused by Thelazia callipaeda (Rhabditida: Thelaziidae), following the its introduction into from Asia. Male P. transmit these nematodes feeding on tears mammals, including wild domestic carnivores (foxes, beech martens, cats, dogs), lagomorphs, humans. Understanding olfactory responses volatile cues essential for developing...
Abstract. The length of time beef cows spend in production is an important component the rentability cattle husbandry. In spite this fact, very few publications have dealt with trait, either Hungary or abroad. Therefore aim present study was to evaluate some age parameters related period. A database 2115 belonging five breeds (Hungarian Grey, Hereford, Aberdeen Angus, Limousin, Charolais) and two crossbred genotypes (Simmental x Hereford F1, Simmental Limousin F1) born between 1977–1992...
The absolute population density of adult Pardosa agrestis (Westring, 1862), the dominant epigeic spider species in many arable lands Central Europe, was quantified two alfalfa fields using a multiple mark-recapture method.The resulting es timates are presented together with catch data from simultaneously performed suction sampling and pitfall trapping.Two week long surveys were conducted August 1995 1996 grids 11 x live-catching traps covering square area 400 m2 first, 900 second survey.The...
Abstract Many sap‐feeders are vectors of plant diseases, acquiring and inoculating pathogens at various stages the feeding process. In oligophagous species, certain aspects probing behaviour on hosts non‐hosts may have implications for range both plants that can be inoculated. We addressed question which phases (including ingestion) occur non‐host in case common leafhopper P sammotettix alienus ( D ahlbom) H emiptera: C icadellidae). This species is a pest cereals, vector W heat dwarf virus,...
Emotions have always been invested in politics. Politicians and politically biased public intellectuals manage citizens’ emotions for various purposes: to alienate them from the rival political camp make participate elections or politics general. <em>Ressentiment</em> is an affective style of great potential it present throughout democratic European societies. By analysing discourses culture war between camps Hungary since 2018, this article presents components, drivers,...
Pardosa species do not overwinter in the adult stage Holarctic region, therefore penultimate instars should avoid precocious maturation autumn. We tested how artificially increased temperature and/or lengthened light regime would affect pre-overwintering development of two common with different phenological patterns. Juvenile agrestis (Westring 1861) and P. hortensis (Thorell 1872) were collected autumn from field. The experimental spiders held either indoor at 26 °C or outdoors ambient...
The wolf spider, Pardosa agrestis Westring (Araneae: Lycosidae), is a dominant arthropod predator in central European agricultural areas. Recent studies have indicated that this spider has unique phenology among species. Three years of systematic field monitoring P. population Hungary confirmed an early summer peak (P1) adults typical the genus followed by second late (P2) does not occur congenerics. Rearing experiments conducted outdoors revealed offspring from P1 can reach maturity ≈2 mo...
The classification according to the Water Framework Directive (WFD) includes numerous challenges in contrast with previously applied water qualification standards. most important element of ecological status, biological one, is based on five groups living organisms: phytoplankton, phytobenthon, macrophytes, macro-invertebrates and fish. results a three-year research project financed by Ministry Environment (MoEW) Hungarian Academy Sciences (HAS) are reported this work. objective was...
The paper highlights the trends of political communications (PC) that have arisen in Hungary after collapse communist regime (1989). authors identified four main field PC: fragmentation, multiplication PC channels and means, endless amount arenas, Internet, Web 2.0, fragmentation content, amateurism PC; post-objectivity, end requirement unbiased balanced coverage, more emphasis on rise opinion, media as community focal point rather than window to objective reality; performative turn,...
The spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura, 1931) -SWD) is one of the most recently introduced invasive pests economical importance in Europe.It has invaded many countries Europe and North America causing significant losses fruit production.In 2012, species been detected for first time Hungary at a highway rest area.The following year countrywide trapping program was conducted to monitor spreading species.In 2013, thirty-three areas furthermore cherry, strawberries,...
