Herbivore handling of a Plant’s trichome: the case of Heliconius charithonia (L.) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) and Passiflora lobata (Killip) Hutch. (Passifloraceae)

Abstract: Neotropical Entomology 37(3): 247-252 (2008) Interação Herbívoro-Tricoma: o Caso de Heliconius charithonia (L.) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) e Passifl ora lobata (Killip) Hutch. (Passifl oraceae) RESUMO -Apesar de as evidências mostrarem que herbívoros são negativamente afetados pelos tricomas, há também relatos de contra-adaptações que sobrepujam as defesas das plantas. Este estudo busca os prováveis mecanismos usados pelas larvas da borboleta ninfalídea Heliconius charithonia (L.) que permitem que elas se a… Show more

“…Non-glandular trichomes from a variety of plant species have been reported to impale aphids, bees, ants, leafhoppers, flies and some other insects [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], but there is no information about the mechanical properties of these impaling trichomes, how long it takes for an insect to become impaled, whether an impaled insect can ever escape, and little quantification of the locations of piercing. However, these studies provide compelling justification for developing a more mechanistic description of this physical entrapment.…”

“…Observations of neonate M. quinquemaculata and S. littoralis feeding behavior on native N. attenuata growing in natural habitats in Utah confirmed these laboratory observations and led us to conclude that trichomes and their exudates, rather than being directly defensive, provide a sugary first meal for these Lepidopteran herbivores. Interestingly, trichome feeding has been reported for other Lepidopteran species and may be common (4,17).…”
