Gall traits and galling insect survival in a multi-enemy context

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2020
Introduction: The enemy hypothesis postulates that gall traits protect galling insects against natural enemies. Galls show a huge range of sizes, colors and ornaments, which vary even intraspecifically. However, galling insects are targets of various organisms that attack them directly or indirectly.

Parasitic wasp‐associated polydnavirus and venom affect arthropod community assembly on wild cabbage via the caterpillar host

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Cotesia glomerata polydnavirus and venom, either alone or in combination, affect colonisation by members of the arthropod community in a natural field setting. Plants damaged by P. brassicae injected with both polydnavirus and venom were colonised more often by Mamestra brassicae caterpillars, Myzus persicae aphids and aphid parasitoids compared to ...

Insect galls of Itamonte (Minas Gerais, Brazil): characterization and occurrence

, 2014
Three sites of Itamonte (Minas Gerais) were investigated for insect galls from September, 2011 to July, 2012, seasonally. One-hundred and one morphotypes of insect galls were recorded on 63 species of host plant (45 genera and 23 families ...

Canopy position and tree size structure the distribution of honeydew‐producing scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in a temperate hardwood forest

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Scale insect abundance peaked in the upper canopy of sugar maples. Parthenolecanium peaked on older internodes; Lepidosaphes on the current leader. Internodes longer than the previous carried more scales; wider ones fewer. Abstract Forest canopies are vertically stratified habitats in which microclimate and host tissue quality vary with height.

Local Versus Allopatric Parasites: Acanthocephalans From Different Watersheds Are Associated With Different Infection Strategies in Definitive Host

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Gammarus pulex infected by Pomphorhynchus laevis at the cystacanth larval stage. We investigated whether geographic origin influences infection success of the acanthocephalan Pomphorhynchus laevis across its complex life cycle. Parasites from different watersheds showed strong differences in infection success and virulence in intermediate hosts ...
