Olfactory Attraction of the Larval Parasitoid, Hyposoter horticola, to Plants Infested with Eggs of the Host Butterfly, Melitaea cinxia
Parasitoids locate inconspicuous hosts in a heterogeneous habitat using plant volatiles, some of which are induced by the hosts. Hyposoter horticola Gravenhost (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) is a parasitoid of the Glanville fritillary butterfly Melitaea cinxia L. (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae). Melitaea cinxia lays eggs in clusters on leaves of Plantago lanceolata L. (Lamiales: Plantaginaceae) and Ve...
متن کاملPollen feeding in the butterfly Heliconius charitonia: isotopic evidence for essential amino acid transfer from pollen to eggs.
Heliconius and Laparus butterflies exhibit a unique pollen-collecting behaviour that enhances lifespan and fecundity. The specific nutritional contribution of pollen, however, had not been previously demonstrated. We used stable isotope variation to trace the carbon flow into eggs from corn pollen provided experimentally to ovipositing female Heliconius charitonia, and to evaluate the use of is...

Concerns about the potential toxicity of pollen from genetically modified maize on neighbouring butterflies prompted urgent studies, reports Nigel Williams.
متن کاملButterfly effect
That the flap of a butterfly’s wing might lead to a storm or other event halfway around the globe is a popular image used to introduce chaos theory. But two small lepidopterans appear to have played a major part in the scrapping of plans to build a new nuclear power station on a shingle bank in the south-east of England, which is becoming an increasing focus in the International Year of Biodive...
متن کاملButterfly Factorization
The paper introduces the butterfly factorization as a data-sparse approximation for the matrices that satisfy a complementary low-rank property. The factorization can be constructed efficiently if either fast algorithms for applying the matrix and its adjoint are available or the entries of the matrix can be sampled individually. For an N ×N matrix, the resulting factorization is a product of O...
