abstract
  • L. riparia are a subsocial earwig with complex maternal habits.[5][7] They are voracious predators, and highly regarded an efficient for of pest control in many situations.[5] Repugnitory glands in the earwigs cause them to secrete a foul smelling pheromone to deter predators, which is said to smell like decomposition.[2] Males of this species have two penises in which they can use interchangeably.[8] Individuals have a preference on which they dominantly use though.[8] Just like humans’ limb dexterity, L. riparia have a 90% prevalence of “right-handed” penises.[8] This unequal proportion is unique to this species compared to all other earwigs, and may have a relationship with the spermatheca location on females.
