Effect of temperature on the walking behaviour of an egg parasitoid: disentangling kinetic response from integrated response
Bibliographic record
Abstract
1. This study investigated the effect of temperatures ranging from 10.8 to 34.2 °C on seven walking parameters of an egg parasitoid, Anaphes listronoti . Those responses were compared with a theoretical kinetic model in order to disentangle the kinetic response of the insect from its integrated response. 2. Walking speed increased continuously with temperature, but walking distance and duration were maximised between 25 and 30 °C, and decreased at higher and lower temperatures. At the lowest temperature, females unexpectedly walked a greater distance and for a longer duration in comparison with intermediate temperatures. 3. The number of walking bouts followed the same polynomial trend as walking distance and duration, with a maximum between 30 and 35 °C. The duration of walking bouts was maximised at 20 °C and decreased at lower and higher temperatures, whereas the duration of resting bouts linearly decreased with increasing temperature. There was no effect of temperature on the turning rate of females. 4. For A. listronoti , walking speed and duration of resting bouts followed the kinetic response, but the other behavioural components did not, especially at the lowest and highest temperatures. Walking distance and duration were higher than expected under the kinetic response at 10.8 °C and lower than expected at 34.2 °C. This pattern suggests an integrated response combining behavioural escape from adverse temperature and energy saving. 5. This detailed analysis of the walking behaviour of A. listronoti illustrates the complexity of insect behavioural responses to temperature and the difficulty involved in assessing underlying mechanisms.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
