Latitudinal gradient in response of wing polymorphism to photoperiod in a flightless bug, Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae)
The aim of this study was to determine if there is a latitudinal gradient in the photoperiodic regulation of wing dimorphism in the flightless bug, Pyrrhocoris apterus (L.). For this purpose individuals from three geographical populations (Israel, Spain and Czech Republic) were reared under differen...
