Orientation of Phalerisida maculata Kulzer (Coleoptera, Tenebrionidae) in sandy beaches of the Chilean coast. Orientation of Phalerisida maculata in sandy beaches.
The orientation stimuli of adult individuals of the beetle Phalerisida maculata Kulzer (Coleoptera, Tenebrionidae) over the beach surface, were studied at two sandy beaches of the chilean coast approximately 1300 km apart, Apolillado (ca. 29 degrees S) and Playa Universitaria de Mehuín (ca. 39 degrees S). Phalerisida maculata did not orient by astronomic cues such as the sun and moon, nor by th...

متن کاملVertical distribution of meiofauna on reflective sandy beaches
Extreme physical conditions usually limit the meiofauna occurrence and distribution in highly hydrodynamic environments such as reflective beaches. Despite sediment grains of the upper layers being constantly resuspended and deposited, the high energy of the swash zone besides depositing coarse sediments allows an ample vertical distribution of meiofaunal organisms. The effect of physical, chem...
