Abstract:The phenological window of opportunity for mating, oviposition and larval development is an important part in the life cycle of gall-inducing sawflies. Spring temperatures play an essential role in the timing of eclosion and host plant leaf flush, which are evolutionarily synchronized. This study investigates important events in spring phenology and timing of eclosion for three sympatric gall-inducing sawfly species (Symphyta: Tenthredinidae: Pontania nivalis, P. glabrifrons and P. arcticornis) at two sites in… Show more
