Experimental Evaluation of Arthropod Predation on Pieris rapae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) Eggs and Larvae in Cabbage
Knowledge of factors causing mortality in herbivorous insects is essential to developing a better understanding of their population dynamics and more effective strategies to manage their abundance in crops. In this study we used 2 methods of predator exclusion to evaluate the effects of arthropod predators on Pieris rapae L. eggs and larvae on cabbages (Brassica oleracea variety capitata L.) in...
متن کاملEdible Lepidoptera in Mexico: Geographic distribution, ethnicity, economic and nutritional importance for rural people
In this paper, we reported the butterflies and moths that are consumed in Mexico. We identified 67 species of Lepidoptera that are eaten principally in their larval stage in 17 states of Mexico. These species belong to 16 families: Arctiidae, Bombycidae, Castniidae, Cossidae, Geometridae, Hepialidae, Hesperiidae, Lasiocampidae, Noctuidae, Nymphalidae, Papilionidae, Pieridae, Pyralidae, Saturnii...
متن کاملMarine Puddling in Papilio Polytes (lepidoptera: Papilionidae)
Smedly & Eisner (1995, 1996) stressed the difficulties that terrestrial herbivores, including Lepidoptera, suffer in order to fulfill their need for sodium, an essential ion plentiful in the seas, but in short supply in plants. Adult Lepidoptera drink from puddles, edges of streams, carrion, and excreta from which they obtain sodium and proteins (Beck et al. 1999). Puddling behavior is typicall...
متن کاملChromosome number evolution in skippers (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae)
Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), as many other groups of animals and plants, simultaneously represent preservation of ancestral karyotype in the majority of families with a high degree of chromosome number instability in numerous independently evolved phylogenetic lineages. However, the pattern and trends of karyotype evolution in some Lepidoptera families are poorly studied. Here I provide...
متن کاملThe chromosomes of skipper butterflies from southwestern North America (Lepidoptera, Hesperiidae).
The skipper butterflies of the families Hesperiidae and Megathymidae re present about 37 per cent of the United States butterfly fauna (713 species according to the latest list; Heitzman, manuscript), yet are poorly known karyologically. Maeki and Remington (1960) have presented chromosome counts on eleven species of Hesperiidae and three species of Megathymidae, and Freeman (1969) has publishe...
