Insect Larvae Electrophoresis

[Isabel Sanmartin]

I'd like to contact someone working on insects larvae electrophoresis,
especially on beetles larvae. I'm doing my Ph D research on genus Cera-
mida (Melolonthidae, Scarabaeoidea, Coleoptera), trying to get its phy-
logeny. Adults are very rare so to get alive specimens for electropho-
resis I have to use larvae. They are more abundant and of larger size.
But I've not found any paper on insect larvae electrophoresis, only on
adults. Does anyone out there know of papers dealing with or people
working on this subject?. I'd prefer you send answers directly to my
personal e-mail, not to the general list.
Many thanks.
