“…However, female predators need to commute to the flowers to feed. Hence, they either dump their eggs on another females' cluster and rely on other females to protect their eggs (Tallamy & Horton 1990;Loeb 2003), or they are forced to leave their eggs unattended (Faraji et al 2001). This opens the opportunity for thrips to counterattack, thereby deterring future visits by predatory mites, resulting in trophic role reversals, such as reported here as well as for other systems (Saito 1986;Barkai & McQuaid 1988;Polis et al 1989;Dorn & Mittelbach 1999;Palomares & Caro 1999).…”

Prey attack and predators defend: counterattacking prey trigger parental care in predators

et al. 2005

That predators attack and prey defend is an oversimplified view. When size changes during development, large prey may be invulnerable to predators, and small juvenile predators vulnerable to attack by prey. This in turn may trigger a defensive response in adult predators to protect their offspring. Indeed, when sizes overlap, one may wonder ‘who is the predator and who is the prey’! Experiments with ‘predatory’ mites and thrips ‘prey’ showed that young, vulnerable prey counterattack by killing young predators and adult predators respond by protective parental care, killing young prey that attack their offspring. Thus, young individuals form the Achilles' heel of prey and predators alike, creating a cascade of predator attack, prey counterattack and predator defence. Therefore, size structure and relatedness induce multiple ecological role reversals.

“…Os estudos sobre aspectos biológicos de tingídeos do gênero Gargaphia têm sido conduzidos com as espécies G. decoris (OLCKERS 2000), G. sanchezi (SCHOONHOVEN et al 1975), G. solani (KEARNS & YAMAMOTO 1982;TALLAMY & DENNO 1981;TALLAMY 1985;TALLAMY & HORTON 1990;ALDRICH et al 1991;HARDIN & TALLAMY 1992;MONACO et al 1998) e G. tiliae (SHEELEY & YONKE 1977;HARDIN & TALLAMY 1992). Nesses estudos, a maioria das informações geradas tem considerado apenas aspectos biológicos relacionados ao comportamento de fêmeas em relação ao local de postura e defesa da progênie.…”

ABSTRACT. Effects of temperature on the development, fecundity, and longevity of Gargaphia torresi Lima (Hemiptera, Tingidae). The development of Gargaphia torresi Lima on cotton leaves was studied in bioclimatic chambers at 20, 23, 25, 28 The values of longevity and fecundity were inversely proportional with increase of the temperature. The thermal constant (K) and theoretical lower threshold temperature of development (Tb) were estimated by Reamur law and intercession method of the X, respectively. The theoretical lower threshold temperature of development for individuals that originated adult females and males were 13.9 o C and 13.6 o C, respectively. The immature stages for individuals that originated adult females and males required 209.4 and 220.3 degrees-days from oviposition to adult emergence, respectively. KEYWORDS.Biology; Gargaphia torresi; Hemiptera; temperature; threshold temperature. (30ºC) dias, respectivamente. Os valores de longevidade e fecundidade foram inversamente proporcionais ao aumento da temperatura. As exigências térmicas (K) e temperaturas-base (Tb) foram estimadas para cada um dos estágios imaturos e de ovo à emergência de adultos (machos e fêmeas) de acordo com a Lei de Reamur e com o método de intercecção de X, respectivamente. Os estágios imaturos para indivíduos que originaram fêmeas e machos adultos requereram 209,4 e 220,3 graus-dia da oviposição à emergência do adulto, respectivamente, acima dos limites inferiores de 13,9 e 13,6ºC. RESUMO. O desenvolvimento de Gargaphia torresi

“…Because of the interest generated by these two papers, the list of birds known to exhibit CBP has nearly quadrupled in the last two decades (8)(9)(10)(11), and the phenomenon has been discovered in a diversity of insect taxa as well (12,13). The adaptive framework first developed by Yom Tov and Andersson has been applied and extended in about a dozen detailed behavioral and ecological avian studies (reviewed in ref.…”
