Females which mated with these sterile males developed eggs at a normal rate,
but only oviposited a few eggs. Thus, seminal fluid appears adequate to initiate
oogenesis, but not quite enough to induce full oviposition. This interpretation is ...

However, none of these stimuli caused oviposition. Testicular and accessory
glandular extracts injected into A. arboreus caused ova development as in
normally mated females, but no oviposition occurred (Khalil & Shanbaky 1975).
