Effect of male densities on sex ratio variations of the predatory gall midge, Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)
Monogeny, the production of unisexual broods by individual females, is a well-known characteristic in several species of gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae). Theoretical models have proposed that monogeny may provide a system by which the arrhenogenic/thelygenic females can optionally raise or lowe...
