artikkel er The Wisdom of Parasites fra Corante:
The wasp slips her stinger through the roach’s exoskeleton and directly into its brain. She apparently use ssensors along the sides of the stinger to guide it through the brain, a bit like a surgeon snaking his way to an appendix with a laparoscope. She continues to probe the roach’s brain until she reaches one particular spot that appears to control the escape reflex. She injects a second venom that influences these neurons in such a way that the escape reflex disappears.

Hmmm… Dette lød kjent. Lurer på om jeg ikke var sammen med dama som det står om en periode på 80-tallet. 😉

Det minner i det hele tatt om opptil flere forhold jeg har vært vitne til… 😉
