Title : Mating behaviour and communication in wax moths : Galleria mellonella

Abstract:

MATING BEHAVIOUR AND COMMUNICATION IN WAX MOTHS: GALLERIA MELLONELLA

Abstract

Insect pheromones are volatile organic molecules of low molecular weight that elicit a behavioral response from individuals of the same species for mating and can be used to communicate between members of the same or the opposite sex. The Greater Wax Moth, Galleria mellonella (L.), is an interesting insect for studies because males attract females. Males are very active throughout their existence, and mating occurs soon after emergence, usually early in the evening or during the daytime. The olfactory attraction of females to males results in the response of females to the male pheromone, including lifting antennae, extending wings horizontally, wing fanning, circle dancing, upwind movement., and courtship.

Keywords: Behavior, Courtship, Mating, Male wax moth, and Pheromone
