Winter predation of diapausing cocoons of slug caterpillars (Lepidoptera: Limacodidae).

Environmental entomology - 1 Dec 2010

Murphy Shannon M, Lill John T

Abstract excerpt

Predators exert strong top-down pressure on herbivorous insects, but research on how predators affect herbivore fitness often focuses on the more active juvenile and adult life stages while ignoring the pupal or cocoon life stage. Few studies have investigated predation of lepidopteran pupae or cocoons and even fewer have investigated species that are not forest pests. Here we present a study on overwinter...
