    Notes: Abstract Individuals of three Anastrepha species: A. obliqua, A. ludens, and A. serpentina (Diptera: Tephritidae), were sorted according to pupal weight in cohorts of large and small flies. Demographic parameters and reproductive patterns and heterogeneity were determined for each cohort. Large flies of the three species presented greater expectation of life and gross fecundity rates. A. ludens was the species with the longest life span (expectation of life of large adults was 110 days) and the greatest gross fecundity rates (1597 eggs/female for the large flies). While, A. obliqua had the shortest mean age of reproduction (33 days), and the greatest daily egg production (14 eggs/female/day). Net fecundity was similar in these two. A. serpentina had lower fecundity rates. Reproductive information for each size and each species include: age-by-parity relations, fraction of sexually mature life in which females lay eggs, and frequency distribution of individual egg production. Results demonstrate that even under constant laboratory conditions and using standard artificial hosts, there is a great deal of life history variation among these Anastrepha species and among other tephritid fruit flies.

    Notes: A torsion pendulum study of boron fiber-epoxy resin composites has shown marked deviations, at elevated temperatures, from the predicted behavior. A new damping peak at approximately 180°C as measured at 5 Hz is present which appears to be independent of the type of epoxy resin present in the matrix. This peak is attributed to interfacial effects between the boron fibers and the matrix resin. A linear model is tentatively proposed to explain this effect.
