Metapopulation genetic structure of two coexisting parasitoids of the Glanville fritillary butterfly.

Oecologia - 1 Mar 2005

Abstract excerpt

We investigated the metapopulation genetic structure of two specialist parasitoids, Cotesia melitaearum and Hyposoter horticola, attacking the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia) in the Aland Islands south-western Finland. The host butterfly persists as a classic metapopulation in a network of 4,000 small habitat patches within an area of 50 by 70 km . The two parasitoids are known to differ greatly...
