NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Pyralidae The Pyralidae or snout-moths are a family of Lepidoptera (moths). In many classifications, the Crambidae or grass-moths have been treated as a sub-division of the Pyralidae, the combination being one of the largest families in the Lepidoptera.

Caterpillars of Australian PYRALIDAE The PYRALIDAE originally included a number of subfamilies which have since been placed in the family CRAMBIDAE. They were first separated out as a distinct group by Munroe in 1972 based on the presence or absence of an organ called the praecinctorium, which when present is a bilobed flimsy structure lying on the mid-line between medially fused tympanic bullae. The Caterpillars of PYRALIDAE are very varied in their habits. linus.socs.uts.edu.au /~don/larvae/pyra/pyralidae.html   (137 words)

Stratégies de ponte et d'alimentation larvaire chez la pyrale de la canneberge, Acrobasis vaccinii (Lepidoptera: ... In insect species whose larvae need several hosts to complete their development, larval survival is usually dependent on both the choice of oviposition sites by females and the food searching behaviour of larvae. In this thesis, I studied oviposition behaviour and larval foraging behaviour and their possible impacts on larval fitness in the cranberry fruitworm, Acrobasis vaccinii (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), a species in which each larva must feed on several fruits of the cranberry, Vaccinium oxycoccos (Ericacae), to complete its development. Firstly, I demonstrated that females, under laboratory conditions, exhibit a significant preference for the largest fruit available when choosing oviposition sites; larvae leaving these maternally selected large fruits were significantly larger than those larvae leaving smaller fruits. www.theses.ulaval.ca /2003/20885/20885.html   (985 words)
