Caterpillar thermal adaptation: Behavioral differences reflect metabolic thermal sensitivities

The effects of temperature and season on the O 2 consumption of third‐instar larvae of the goldenrod gall fly (Eurosta solidaginis)

“…However, the Q,,, fell to 1.6 between 20 and 30°C. This pattern is similar to that of the gypsy moth caterpillar, Lymantria dispar (Casey & Knapp, 1986). Because the daytime temperatures of goldenrod ball galls are likely to be 120°C during much of the summer (Layne.…”

Ciclo de vida y enemigos naturales de Mechanitis menapis mantineus (Lepidoptera: Ithomiini)

“…Los individuos que viven en grupos se pueden beneficiar al incrementar las oportunidades para detectar depredadores y defenderse en conjunto (Stamp, 1980); o por el efecto de dilución o distribución del riesgo, a medida que el grupo crece, el riesgo per capita por ataques, decrece (Turchin & Kareiva, 1989). Sin embargo, existen otros beneficios, presentes en los herbívoros, que incluyen la ubicación de pareja de pareja (Casey & Knapp, 1987) que no beneficiaría directamente a M. menapis mantineus, dado el parasitismo se presenta durante su estado larval.…”

Organismal responses to habitat change: herbivore performance, climate and leaf traits in regenerating tropical dry forests

“…Ultimately, to test the ‘extreme climate’ hypothesis directly would require detailed studies of R. lebeau thermal physiology and the vegetation‐level operative temperatures they experience in both habitats (e.g. Casey & Knapp ; Kingsolver ). In addition, the role of moisture should be considered since the younger forest was less humid than the older forest (and the leaves of C. nitida were drier; see below).…”
