ABSTRACT The Japanese beetle (JB) Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) has been a significant invasive pest for over a century in North America. Several studies have reported that plants under direct sunlight are preferred and trap colour affects the number of beetles captured, indicating that visual stimuli influence JB behaviour. Despite this,

Cantharidin is produced only by beetles of Meloidae and Oedemeridae families and is a rare resource for canthariphilous insects that ingest fluids and/or portions of living and even dead meloid and oedemerid beetles. This study reports that the canthariphilous insects also use cantharidin that remains in bird droppings produced after eating meloid or ...
