    Notes: Abstract Grasshoppers, Schistocerca americana, reared from hatching on artificial diet had fewer sensilla on the antennae in the final larval stage than insects reared on lettuce. This was true of basiconic and coeloconic sensilla (presumed olfactory) and trichoid sensilla (presumed gustatory). The degree of difference varied along the antenna and with sensillum type. Adding salicin to the diet restored the numbers of all types of sensillum to levels equal to, or approaching, those in lettuce-fed insects. The addition of some volatile compounds – carvone (monoterpene), chalcone (flavonoid), citral (monoterpene) and guaiacol (phenolic) – resulted in slight increases in number, but coumarin (phenylpropanoid) had no effect. None of the compounds, either singly or in combination, produced more sensilla than were present in plant-fed insects.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Alle Hauptnerven des Mund- und Rachennervensystems wurden kontrolliert reseziert. Erst wenn die rückwärtigen Rachennerven zerschnitten werden, nehmen die Insekten wesentlich mehr Nahrung zu sich. Solche Insekten versuchen längere Zeit zu fressen. Wenn sich während des Fressens der Vorderdarm füllt, wird keine Nahrung an den Mitteldarm weitergegeben und sein Vorderende ist der letzte Teil, der sich vollständig ausdehnt. Nach Durchtrennung der rückwärtigen Rachennerven sind alle Teile des Vorderdarms offen-sichtlich mehr gedehnt. Eine solche erhöhte Nahrungsaufnahme tritt aber nicht ein, wenn die Nahrung relativ ungünstig ist. Das Abbinden des Kropfes verursacht beim nachträglichen Fressen keine übermäßige Ausdehnung des Vorderteiles. Die Nahrungsaufnahme hat keinen Unterschied im Körpervolumen zur Folge und das Durchtrennen des ventralen Nervenstranges bleibt ohne Einfluß auf die nachträglich aufgenommenen Nahrungsmengen. Das vergrößerte Darmvolumen wird durch Kollaps des Luftsackes kompensiert.
    Notes: Abstract During the course of a meal by insects with an empty gut, food is held in the foregut and the midgut remains empty. The last part of the foregut to fill is the extreme anterior end of the crop, and stretch receptors in this region control the amount eaten. Cutting the posterior pharyngeal nerves isolates these receptors from the frontal garglion and results in hyperphagia pharyngeal nerves isolates these receptors from the frontal garglion and results in hyperphagia during one meal. On unfavourable food, when smaller amounts are eaten, distension of the foregut is not involved in regulating meal size. Feedback from receptors in the body wall is not important in regulating meal size; most of the increase in gut volume resulting from feeding is taken up by the collapse of the air sacs so that there is little or no change in the body volume.

    Notes: Abstract. The neutron deficient 199At nucleus has been studied in the 175Lu+28Si reaction at Eb= 141 MeV. In order to select events of interest in the presence of the very strong background caused by fission, γ-rays have been detected in coincidence with recoiling evaporation residues. The excited states of 199At observed for the first time may indicate that this nucleus is deformed.

    Notes: Abstract: A series of new strongly coupled high-K, multi-quasiparticle structures have been observed in the light erbium transitional nuclei, 159Er and 160Er. The interpretation of these bands is discussed within the framework of the cranked shell model. These sequences, when taken together with the existing quasiparticle excitations, form a near complete set of low-lying, multi-quasiparticle structures on which a coherent series of aligned angular momentum, band crossing and blocking arguments can be based. The measured B(M1)/B(E2) ratios are compared with geometrical calculations to test the proposed configuration assignments.
