The impact of redefined species limits in Palame (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Lamiinae: Acanthocinini) on assessments of host, seasonal, and stratum specificity
2002-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Assumptions about the host and stratum specificity of tropical insects are routinely incorporated into estimates of global species richness, but few empirical studies reliably assess tropical insect specificity. In French Guiana, cer-ambycid beetles in the genus Palame reproduce exclusively in trees belonging to the Brazil nut family (Lecythi-daceae). During a year-long rearing project, Palame anceps (Bates) emerg...
