Texto completoThe Lycaenidae butterflies are known for their remarkable diversity in the Neotropics; however basic ecological features of this group, especially of the immature stages, such as information about host plants and ant-interactions (myrmecophily) are barely known for most species. Therefore the limited knowledge of lycaenids natural history restrains a better understanding of important ecological-evolutionary aspects. In this thesis we initially characterized the community of florivorous lycaenids in a Brazilian Savanna area, describing the seasonal occurrence of immatures, identifying host plants, the diet breadth and interactions with ants and natural enemies. Then, we evaluated the occurrence of the lycaenids according to factors related to resource availability (host plants) and the presence/absence of ants. In summary, we sampled 31 species of Lycaenidae in 41 plant species (17 families). Immatures were more abundant in the dry season indicating a seasonal pattern of occurrence; in addition lycaenids were related to the temporal availability of food resource, following the phenology of the host plants in the field. The oligophagous and polyphagous species were found predominately in plants which produce few flowers buds. The presence of immatures in extrafloral nectaried plants was commonplace, which was expected given that larvae can benefit from living with ants. A further detailed experimental study revealed that ant presence is a cue for female oviposition in two facultative myrmecophilous lycaenid species Allosmaitia strophius and Rekoa marius, but contrary to our predictions, ants failed to protect lycaenid eggs from parasitoids. In other study system, Leptotes cassius did not discriminate between plants with or without ants, despite the fact that larvae had stable association with ants. Our study indicates that there can be striking differences among lycaenid species with regard to association with ants and the benefits granted from these associations. So generalizations about lycaenid ant associations should be avoided and every study system must be examined with detail.

Texto completoThe establishment of sections in Eumaeini contributed significantly to the classification of this tribe, which still has many taxonomic problems. However, many studies have yet to be performed, aiming to understand phylogenetic relationships of genera and species, and to reconstruct the evolutionary history of biologically relevant characters (ex. secondary sexual organs), providing supports for understanding speciation processes that contribute to the diversity of the group. Thus, the main objective of the present study is to establish a more stable classification for the Atlides section. As consequences of this objective, it was possible to test the monophyly of the genus Theritas Hübner, based on morphological characters; proposing monophyletic groups within Theritas, for further review of the species; describing a new species listed as sp. # 128 in checklist of the Atlas of Neotropical Lepidoptera; and providing guide lines for understanding the evolution of secondary sexual characters found in the Atlides section. A total of 82 morphological characters were collected: two from head, 65 from wings, two from thorax, one from external abdomen, eight from male genitalia and four from female genitalia. Phylogenetic relationships were studied according to the cladistic method. Tests assuming equal and different characters\' weights were performed. The characters\' weights were established using the implicit weighting method with values of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 25, 50, 250 and 1000 for the constant of concavity (k). Three most parsimonious trees were obtained with equal characters weights analyses (L=296, Ci= 50, Ri= 78). Cladistics results showed that Atlides section does not constitute a monophyletic group as it had been proposed; Theritas Hübner, 1818 does not constitute a monophyletic group and it has being dismembered into three genera: Theritas Hübner, 1818 (sensu stricto), Denivia Johnson, 1992, revalidated and Margaritheclus Bálint, 2002, revalidated. The new species listed as sp. # 128 belongs to Denivia Johnson and it was described as Denivia silma Martins & Robbins, new species. It was proposed three new combinations, one in Margaritheclus Bálint and two in Denivia Johnson, and one new synonym in Theritas Hübner. The secondary sexual organs proved to be homoplastic, with gene regulation as a plausible explanation for the evolutionary pattern presented.

Lycaenidae é a segunda família de borboletas em riqueza de espécies e nos Neotrópicos é representada por três subfamílias: Lycaeninae, Polyommatinae e Theclinae, contudo estes grupos ainda são pouco conhecidos nesta região, especialmente em relação a dieta e biologia. A proposta deste estudo foi associar lagartas de Theclinae a inflorescências de diferentes famílias de plantas em cerrado típico do Distrito Federal (Brasil) (Capítulo 1) e apresentar características biológicas de algumas das espécies encontradas (Capítulo 2). As coletas e observações foram realizadas em áreas de cerrado sensu stricto e campo sujo na APA Gama Cabeça de Veado e em fragmentos de cerrado no campus da Universidade de Brasília. Os levantamentos quantitativos de lagartas e suas plantas hospedeiras foram realizados entre 1999 e 2010. Foram coletadas ou examinadas 11.445 inflorescências em 89 espécies de 31 famílias de plantas. A partir da criação das larvas em laboratório foram obtidos 202 adultos de Eumaeini (Theclinae) de 29 espécies em 42 espécies de plantas, além de mais duas espécies utilizando outros recursos (flor caída e folhas). Os resultados indicaram um alto esforço de amostragem para obtenção dos imaturos na vegetação de cerrado. Em algumas famílias de plantas a riqueza e a abundancia de lagartas foi alta, Araliaceae, Vochysiaceae e Proteaceae, enquanto em Rubiaceae a freqüência de lagartas foi baixa. No geral, as espécies encontradas na área de estudo têm ampla distribuição geográfica e são localmente polífagas ou oligófagas. As observações das características das lagartas (Capítulo 2) foram realizadas através da vistoria de inflorescências no campo e a criação de lagartas em laboratório, entre março de 2009 e dezembro de 2010. Nesse período foram obtidas 217 lagartas de 23 espécies, sendo 22 espécies de Theclinae e uma de Polyommatinae. Cerca de 10% do total de lagartas estava parasitada principalmente por Hymenoptera e 12% não completaram o desenvolvimento resultando em 170 adultos. O maior número de indivíduos encontrados foi representado por Allosmaitia strophius (Godart) em espécies de Malpighiaceae (n=66) e Strymon mulucha (Hewitson) (n=37), espécie polífaga. Cinco larvas da primeira e uma da segunda espécie foram observadas em interação com formigas no campo. O canibalismo foi observado em A. strophius e as pupas desta e de outras três espécies produziram sons audíveis. Paiwarria aphaca (Hewitson) se destacou por sua grande diferença entre os primeiros e os últimos ínstares e pela marcada diferença com a larva de P. umbratus (Geyer), ilustrada para a Costa Rica. Calycopis mimas (Godman & Salvin) foi a única espécie entre os Eumaeini observada com comportamento de "bungee jumping" quando estimulada. O hábito alimentar detritívoro foi observado em duas espécies: Electrostrymon endymion (Fabricius) e Kisutam syllis (Godman & Salvin). Em todo o trabalho, foram examinadas mais de 13 mil inflorescências e as larvas criadas em laboratório resultaram em 319 adultos de 37 espécies de licenídeos, presentes em 54 espécies de plantas (Anexo 2). Esses resultados representam o primeiro registro de plantas hospedeiras para sete espécies de Eumaeini e o primeiro registro de ocorrência de outras cinco espécies no Distrito Federal. A importância da APA Gama Cabeça de Veado como área de preservação no Distrito Federal é ressaltada neste estudo. _________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
Lycaenidae constitutes the second family of butterflies in species richness, and in the Neotropics is composed for three subfamilies: Polyommatinae, Theclinae, and Lycaeninae. Although, their high significance they still little known in the Neotropical region, especially in relation to their diet and biology. The aim of this study was to associate the caterpillars of Theclinae to the inflorescences of several plant families in the cerrado of Distrito Federal (Brazil) (Chapter 1), and to present the biological characteristics of some species (Chapter 2). Observations and collections of caterpillars and inflorescences were carried out in areas of cerrado sensu stricto and campo sujo, in the APA Gama Cabeça de Veado and in the fragments of cerrado close to the campus of the Universidade de Brasília. Quantitative surveys of caterpillars and their hostplants were conducted between 1999 and 2010. It was collected or examined 11,445 inflorescences in 89 species of 31 families of plants. All the caterpillars collected were reared in the laboratory. From them were obtained 202 adults of Eumaeini (Theclinae) of 29 species reared in 42 species of hostplants, plus two species using other resources (soil fallen flower and leaves). The results pointed to a necessity of a huge sampling effort to obtain caterpillars of Lycaenidae in cerrado vegetation. In Araliaceae, Vochysiaceae and Proteaceae families there were a high species richness and abundance of caterpillars while in Rubiaceae the frequency of caterpillars was low. In general, the species of Lycaenidae found in the study area have broad geographical distribution, and their caterpillars are poliphagous or oligophagous. Observations and the description of the characteristics of the caterpillars (Chapter 2) were conducted through the inspection of inflorescences in the field and the rearing of caterpillars in laboratory, between March 2009 and December 2010. During this period 217 caterpillars of 23 species were found being 22 species of Theclinae and one of Polyommatinae. Nearly 10% of the total number of caterpillars was parasitized mainly by Hymenoptera, 12% did not complete their development, and 170 adults emerged in the laboratory. Allosmaitia strophius (Godart) found on species of Malpighiaceae (n=66) was the species with the highest number of individuals followed by a polyphagous species Strymon mulucha (Hewitson) (n=37). vi In the field we observed five caterpillars of the first species mentioned above and one of the second species interacting with ants. Cannibalism was observed in A. strophius, and its pupae and pupae of three others species produced audible sounds. Paiwarria aphaca (Hewitson) was highlighted because of the great difference observed between the first and last instares, and by the marked difference with the caterpillars of P. umbratus (Geyer) found in Costa Rica. Calycopis mimas (Godman & Salvin) was the only species observed, among the Eumaeini, displaying the "bungee jumping" behavior when stimulated. The food habit scavenger was observed in two species: Electrostrymon endymion (Fabricius) and Kisutam syllis (Godman & Salvin). Throughout this work, more than 13 thousand inflorescences have been examined, and 319 adults of 37 species of licenids emerged in the laboratory from the immature reared on 54 species of plants (Annex 2). The results show the first record of host plants for seven species of Eumaeini, and the first record of five species for Distrito Federal. This study also highlights the importance of the APA Gama Cabeça de Veado as a preservation area in the Distrito Federal.

Resumo: A escolha do local de oviposição tem grande influência na aptidão das fêmeas de Lepidoptera, uma vez que as larvas têm mobilidade restrita. Pistas químicas, visuais e/ou táteis provindas da planta hospedeira costumam ser utilizadas, mas também são importantes a presença de inimigos naturais ou parceiros mutualistas. No caso de espécies mirmecófilas, a oviposição pode ser mediada pelas formigas atendentes, mas pouco se sabe sobre como as borboletas percebem as formigas e as utilizam como sinal. Parrhasius polibetes, um licenídeo polífago que apresenta mirmecofilia facultativa, é comumente encontrada em Schefflera vinosa (Araliaceae), uma planta que também pode abrigar agregações do membracídeo Guayaquila xiphias. P. polibetes e G. xiphias podem ser atendidas pelas mesmas formigas, e larvas de P. polibetes tem sua sobrevivência aumentada quando ocorrem próximas às associações G. xiphias + formigas, e as borboletas adultas preferem ovipositar em ramos onde a associação está presente, embora não se conheça qual sinal é utilizado para essa escolha. Este trabalho teve por objetivo investigar se P. polibetes reconhece visualmente a associação e a utiliza como pista para oviposição. Foram feitos experimentos com formigas e membracídeos secos montados em ramos pareados de S. vinosa, entre os quais a borboleta poderia escolher. Fêmeas de P. polibetes preferiram ovipositar em ramos contendo a pista visual de formigas + membracídeos ou apenas de formigas, não havendo preferência quando apenas membracídeos estavam presentes. O número de ovos foi maior apenas quando a pista visual de formigas + membracídeos estava presente. Isso revela a importância da visão para a escolha do local de oviposição por P. polibetes, embora não se descarte o uso de pistas químicas ou táteis. A imagem de formigas deve ser recorrente em muitas espécies de plantas hospedeiras utilizadas por P. polibetes, e fêmeas capazes de utilizá-la na hora da oviposição teriam vantagem dada a importância das formigas para a sobrevivência das larvas. As pistas utilizadas por borboletas com diferentes níveis de mirmecofilia para escolha do local de oviposição representam um campo de estudo pouco explorado, que poderá revelar novos aspectos sobre a interação entre lepidópteros e formigas
Abstract: Because the larvae have restricted mobility, the location chosen for oviposition and immature development may have a crucial effect on Lepidoptera fitness. Chemical, visual and/or tactile cues from the host plant are usually utilized during host plant selection, but the presence of natural enemies or mutualistic partners is also important. In the case of myrmecophilous species, oviposition can be mediated by the tending ants, but little is known about how the female perceive ants, and use them as cues. Parrhasius polibetes, a poliphagous lycaenid that presents facultative myrmecophily, is commonly found in Schefflera vinosa (Araliaceae), a bush commonly hosting aggregations of the treehopper Guayaquila xiphias. P. polibetes and G. xiphias can be tended by the same ants, and P. polibetes larvae have their survivorship increased when they occur close to associations of G. xiphias + ants. Female butterflies prefer to oviposit on branches where the association is present, even though the signal used in this choice is unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate whether P. polibetes visually recognize ant-treehopper associations and use them as clue for oviposition. Behavioral trials consisted of dried ants and treehoppers mounted on paired S. vinosa branches, between which the butterfly could choose. P. polibetes females preferred to oviposit on branches containing ants + treehoppers or only ants, and showed no preference when only treehoppers were present. The number of eggs was greater only when both ants and treehoppers were present on a branch. These results reveal the importance of vision during the oviposition process in P. polibetes, even though chemical and tactile clues may also be used. The image of ants is probably recurrent in many host plant species used by P. polibetes, and females capable of perceiving them during oviposition would have an advantage, given the importance of ants for larval survival in this species. So far, the cues used during egg-laying by butterflies with different levels of myrmecophily have not been explored in detail; and further investigations might reveal new aspects about the behavioral interface of butterfly-ant interactions

Eumaeini (Lepidoptera, Lycaenidae) é uma tribo rica em espécies de borboletas na região Neotropical. A coloração críptica e interações simbióticas com formigas são atributos ecológicos de defesa das lagartas desses lepidópteros. Contudo, sabe-se pouco da história de vida e da relação entre recursos, abundância e interações desses licenídeos. Os objetivos desse estudo foram avaliar os efeitos da diversidade e abundância dos recursos (inflorescências) e a presença de formigas sobre a abundância de imaturos de Eumaeini; fornecer informações sobre a história natural e características morfológicas de Paiwarria venulius (Cramer) e Paiwarria aphaca (Hewitson) comparando-as com lagartas aposemáticas de Parides Hübner (Papilionidae), sugeridas como possíveis modelos miméticos, e apresentar a biologia e morfologia dos imaturos de Strymon crambusa (Hewitson), uma espécie rara em levantamentos. As amostragens ocorreram em mata de galeria, cerrado sensu stricto e campo sujo. Os resultados indicaram que a abundância de inflorescências afetou positivamente a abundância dos licenídeos, mas a composição de espécies não foi afetada pela composição florística. A presença de formigas no total das plantas também exibiu efeito sobre a abundância dos imaturos. Lagartas das duas espécies de Paiwarria apresentam escolos e coloração conspícua sobre folhas das plantas hospedeiras. P. venulius possui órgão nectário dorsal enquanto P. aphaca não, além disso, o padrão de coloração da primeira exibe maior convergência fenotípica com o encontrado nas lagartas de Parides spp.. P. venulius é registrada também em áreas de mata, enquanto P. aphaca ocorre em áreas de cerrado. As diferenças morfológicas entre elas podem estar relacionadas aos caracteres adaptativos na transição do ambiente de mata para o savânico ou vice versa. Lagartas de S. crambusa são crípticas e são localmente especializadas em Oxalidaceae. Esta tese fornece informações inéditas sobre padrões e processos ecológicos e evolutivos que podem estar atuando em diferentes escalas nas comunidades de Lycaenidae no Cerrado.
In the Neotropics Eumaeini (Lycaenidae) is a very species rich tribe. Their caterpillar cryptic coloration and symbiotic interactions with ants (myrmecophily) are ecological attributes recognized as defense strategies. Little is known about the life history and the relation between resources, abundance and interactions of these lepidopterans. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of diversity and abundance of inflorescences and the presence of ants on the plants on the abundance of immature stages of Eumaeini, furnish informations on the natural history and morphological characteristics of Paiwarria venulius (Cramer) and Paiwarria aphaca (Hewitson), making comparisons with aposematic caterpillars of Parides Hübner (Papilionidae), suggested as possible mimetic models, also presents the biology and morphology of immatures Strymon crambusa (Hewitson), a species that is infrequently registered. Sampling was conducted in gallery forest, cerrado sensu stricto and campo sujo. The results indicated that the abundance of inflorescences positively affected the abundance of Eumaeini immatures, but the species composition were not affect by floristic composition. The presence of ants on the plants also had an effect on the immatures abundance. Caterpillar of both species of Paiwarria have scoli and a conspicuous coloration on the leaves of their food plants. P. venulius presents the dorsal nectary organ while P. aphaca does not, and the first has a higher phenotypic convergence with caterpillars of Parides spp.. P. aphaca occurs in savanna areas, while P. venulius is also in forest areas. Morphological differences between the two species of Paiwarria may be relate to adaptive characteristics in the transition from the gallery forest to the cerrado or vice versa. S. crambusa have cryptic caterpillars and are locally specialized in Oxalidaceae. This thesis provides new information on patterns and ecological and evolutionary processes that may be acting in different scales in communities of Lycaenidae in the Cerrado.

Resumo: Borboletas são bastante usadas como indicadores em programas conservacionistas devido a fácil e rápida amostragem, biologia e ecologia conhecidas, e sensibilidade a alterações ambientais. A subfamília Riodininae é diversificada e facilmente encontrada em ambiente neotropical. Ocorre em condições bastante particulares no tempo e no espaço, e devidamente estudada poderia ser um interessante grupo para monitoramento ambiental. O cerrado apresenta heterogeneidade de habitats, proporcionando uma grande variedade de microambientes para a distribuição desta subfamília. Neste trabalho, foi estudada a distribuição no tempo e no espaço de borboletas da subfamília Riodininae na Gleba Pé de Gigante do Parque Estadual de Vassununga, Estado de São Paulo. Durante um ano, foram realizados censos visuais ao longo de três trilhas longas de cerca de 1800 m, e uma trilha curta de 350 m, em amostragens quinzenais de três dias de duração. Registrou-se o número de indivíduos observados de cada espécie. Foram observados 1297 indivíduos, de 42 espécies, das quais seis contribuíram com 75% das observações. A comunidade adequou-se a uma distribuição de série logarítimica, com poucas espécies dominantes e um grande número de raras. Estas borboletas distribuíram-se em períodos de baixa e alta concentração de indivíduos observados, denominados, respectivamente, baixa e alta estação. Durante a alta estação observou-se um maior número de indivíduos concentrados principalmente de março a maio. A distribuição temporal sofreu ação direta de temperatura, umidade e chuvas proporcionando condições mais favoráveis para a ocorrência da subfamília, e indireta através da influência destes fatores na vegetação, que fornece alimento adequado às larvas destas borboletas no período pós-chuvas. As espécies mirmecófilas Theope nycteis e Ematurgina axena parecem estar sujeitas também a outros fatores, provavelmente relacionados à presença de formigas na área. A análise espacial mostrou heterogeneidade; cada trilha contribuiu com uma parcela da riqueza e diversidade total da área. Alguns pontos das trilhas com características peculiares mostraram alta concentração de indivíduos. Algumas espécies pareceram estar restritas a determinadas fisionomias vegetais: Calephelis brasiliensis ocorreu em áreas mais abertas de cerrado sensu stricto, enquanto Mesosemia levis e M. melpia foram encontradas predominantemente em áreas de cerradão. Fatores como abertura de dossel e estrutura da vegetação influenciaram a preferência por habitat. Uma investigação mais profunda dos processos que originam estas distribuições no tempo e no espaço pode fornecer o conhecimento necessário a permitir a utilização de algumas espécies deste grupo em estudos ambientais
Abstract: Butterflies are often used as bioindicators in conservation programs due to features such as rapid census, well known biology and ecology, and high sensitivity to environmental change. Species in the subfamily Riodininae are diversified and easily found at any neotropical site. They occur under very particular conditions in time and space; properly studied, they should be interesting indicators for conservation monitoring. The Brazilian savanna (cerrado) shows a high heterogeneity, providing a vast range of microhabitats in which this subfamily could be spread out. In this work, I studied the distribution of the subfamily Riodininae in time and space in a savanna remnant: Gleba Pé de Gigante, Parque Estadual de Vassununga, São Paulo State. For one year, I took fortnightly visual census counts along three long transects (1800m), and a short one (350m), during three days. I took note of the position, time, activity, and number of individuals for each species seen in the area. I observed 1297 individuals, in 42 species; six were responsible for 75% of the individuals present in the area. The community fits a log-series distribution, showing few abundant species and many rare ones. Depending on the number of individuals observed, these butterflies occur in low and high seasons, the latter presenting many more individuals especially from March to May. The distribution in time is influenced by temperature, humidity and rain, directly through favorable microclimatic conditions and indirectly through the influence of these climatic factors on the vegetation, which provides specialized nutrients to the larvae during the post-rainy period. The myrmecophilous species Theope nycteis and Ematurgina axena were also influenced by other factors related to the presence of ants in the area. The spatial analysis showed a heterogeneous distribution pattern; each transect contributed a part of the total richness and diversity of species in the area. There is a high concentration of individuals at a few specific points along transects with special characteristics. Some species were restricted to certain vegetation physiognomies: Calephelis brasiliensis occurred only in open savanna areas, while Mesosemia levis and M. melpia occurred mainly in more forested areas. Factors such as canopy openness and vegetation structure influenced the preferences for habitat. A closer investigation of the processes that originate these distributions in time and space should provide important knowledge for the use of some species of the group in environmental studies

Resumo: Formigas constituem um dos mais proeminentes grupos de organismos terrestres em termos de diversidade, abundância relativa e biomassa animal. Sua importância se deve principalmente ao comportamento eusocial aliado a complexos sistemas de comunicação. A vegetação de áreas tropicais é rica em fontes de alimentos renováveis que induzem a visitação freqüente de formigas às plantas. Sobre a vegetação, as formigas podem atuar como predadoras e acarretar um forte efeito sobre a comunidade de insetos herbívoros. A presença de formigas sobre plantas pode afetar insetos herbívoros basicamente de duas formas: (1) limitando sua ocorrência na folhagem através de interações antagônicas (ex. agressão, predação) ou (2) propiciando espaços livres de inimigos naturais para herbívoros mirmecófilos (que mantêm associações simbióticas com formigas). Em Lepidoptera, a mirmecofilia é amplamente difundida em apenas duas famílias de borboletas (Lycaenidae e Riodinidae). Devido a grande importância da interação com formigas para a morfologia e biologia destas borboletas, acredita-se que grande parte da história evolutiva desses organismos, incluindo eventos de diversificação seja explicada pela mirmecofilia. No entanto, a maior parte da informação sobre borboletas mirmecófilas é baseada no conhecido para espécies das faunas Paleártica, Oriental e Australiana. Enquanto que a rica fauna de borboletas mirmecófilas Neotropicais permanece praticamente desconhecida. Dentre as cerca de 1.200 espécies de Lycaenidae Neotropicais, Parrhasius polibetes (Stoll) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) foi reportada recentemente co-ocorrendo espaço-temporalmente com hemípteros mirmecófilos em Schefflera vinosa (Araliaceae). Neste trabalho são descritos novos aspectos relacionados à morfologia e história natural dos estágios imaturos de P. polibetes, incluindo custos da mirmecofilia, seleção de planta hospedeira, e benefícios da co-ocorrência com hemípteros trofobiontes. O ciclo de desenvolvimento de ovo a adulto é de aproximadamente 36 dias, e o estágio larval compreende quatro instares. Os ovos são depositados exclusivamente em tecidos reprodutivos (botões florais) das plantas hospedeiras. As larvas são polífagas, sendo registradas em 28 espécies em 16 famílias de plantas. A maioria da plantas hospedeiras de P. polibetes (78.57%) apresenta algum tipo de fonte de alimento líquido que promovem a visitação por formigas, sejam nectários extraflorais e/ou hemípteros produtores de exudatos. A partir do terceiro instar, as larvas são atendidas facultativamente por mais de quinze espécies de formigas em três subfamílias (Formicinae, Myrmicinae e Ectatomminae), principalmente formigas do gênero Camponotus Mayr. Assim como em outros Lycaenidae, as interações entre larvas e formigas são mediadas principalmente por uma glândula especializada (dorsal nectar organ) no sétimo segmento abdominal que produz recompensas calóricas para as formigas. Nesse sentido, é esperado que a produção dessas secreções acarrete em custos para as larvas. Para P. polibetes, é demonstrado que as formigas Camponotus crassus e Camponotus melanoticus apresentam diferentes intensidades de atendimento. C. melanoticus atende mais intensamente as larvas que C. crassus em condições de laboratório. Por sua vez, essa diferença pode acarretar em diferentes custos para as larvas. Por exemplo, quando atendidas por C. melanoticus demoram mais tempo para empupar. No entanto, o peso pupal e o tamanho dos adultos não são afetados pela diferença de atendimento, sugerindo que P. polibetes possui mecanismos compensatórios para minimizar os custos da mirmecofilia. Esta é a primeira demonstração de que diferenças específicas de intensidade de atendimento podem afetar parâmetros de desempenho de um inseto trofobionte. Em campo, é demonstrado através de experimentos pareados que o padrão previamente detectado de co-ocorrência espacial entre larvas de P. polibetes e hemípteros mirmecófilos é provocado por dois fatores: 1) fêmeas são capazes de detectar e ovipositar em plantas com associação membracídeos-formigas; 2) larvas que se desenvolvem perto da associação membracídeos-formigas sobrevivem melhor que larvas em plantas sem associação. Tal efeito ocorre porque a presença da interação entre membracídeos e formigas reduz a abundância de potenciais inimigos naturais das larvas (aranhas e vespas parasitóides). Além disso, as larvas são mais facilmente encontradas e atendidas pelas formigas que são recrutadas pelos membracídeos. Ou seja, a presença da associação membracídeos-formigas gera um "espaço livre de inimigos" sobre a planta hospedeira, que é explorado por P. polibetes. Esses resultados mostram que o enfoque tradicional no estudo de mutualismo, baseado em pares de espécies, é inapropriado para entender as pressões seletivas operando em sistemas multitróficos
Abstract: Ants are one of the most prominent groups of terrestrial organisms in terms of diversity, relative abundance and biomass. Their importance is due primarily to eusocial behavior combined with complex communication systems. Tropical foliage is rich in renewable feeding sources that promote ant foraging. As some of the most important predators on plants, ants strongly affect the herbivorous insects. The presence of ants on foliages may affect herbivores by two ways: (1) decreasing herbivore individual numbers due to antagonistic interactions (e.g., aggressiveness, predation); (2) providing an enemy-free space for myrmecophilous herbivores (i.e. those living in close associations with ants). The symbiotic interaction between Lepidoptera and ants is widespread but only among two butterfly families (Lycaenidae and Riodinidae). Due to the great importance of myrmecophily for the morphology and biology of these butterflies, it is supposed that much of the evolutionary history of organisms, including diversification, would be explained by their interactions with ants. However, most of the knowledge about the evolutionary ecology of lycaenids is based on studies of well known Palaearctic, Oriental, and Australian species while little is known about the rich Neotropical fauna, which contains nearly 1,200 species. Larvae of Parrhasius polibetes (Stoll) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) co-occur spatially and temporally with honeydew-producing hemipterans on the host plant Schefflera vinosa (Araliaceae). This study describes new aspects of morphology and natural history of immature stages of P. polibetes, including costs of myrmecophily, host plant selection, and benefits of co-occurrence with hemipteran trophobionts. The development cycle from egg to adult is approximately 36 days, and includes four larval instars. The eggs are laid exclusively on reproductive tissues (flower buds) of the host plants. The larvae are polyphagous, and have already been recorded on 28 plant species from 16 families. Most of the observed host plants of P. polibetes present some kind of liquid reward potentially used by ants (78.57%), either honeydew-producing hemipterans and/or extrafloral nectaries. From the third instar on, the larvae are facultatively tended by more than fifteen ants species in three subfamilies (Formicinae, Myrmicinae, and Ectatomminae), especially ants of the genus Camponotus Mayr. As in other Lycaenidae, interactions between larvae and ants are mediated by a specialized gland (dorsal nectar organ) on the seventh abdominal segment, which produces caloric liquid rewards for ants. Therefore it is expected that the production of these secretions entail costs for the larvae. For P. polibetes, it is shown that Camponotus crassus and Camponotus melanoticus ants differ in the intensity of tending levels to larvae, with C. melanoticus presenting increased tending rates compared to C. crassus. This difference can lead to different costs for the larvae. For instance when tended by C. melanoticus, larvae take longer to pupate. However, the pupal weight and size of adults are not affected by ant tending, suggesting that P. polibetes has compensatory mechanisms to minimize the costs of myrmecophily. This is the first demonstration that specific differences in ant tending may affect performance parameters in an insect trophobiont. In the field, experiments involving the manipulation of ant-treehopper associations on host plants demonstrated that the spatial co-occurrence between P. polibetes caterpillars and honeydew-producing hemipterans is caused by two factors: 1) females are able to detect ant-treehopper associations on foliage before oviposition, and lay eggs in their vicinity; 2) larvae that develop near ant-tended treehoppers survive better than larvae on plants without such association. This effect occurs because the presence of ant-treehopper associations reduces the abundance of potential natural enemies (spiders and parasitoid wasps) of the caterpillars. Moreover, the larvae are more easily found by prospective tending ants that are recruited to nearby honeydew-producing treehoppers. That is, the presence of ant-treehopper associations creates an "enemy-free space" on the host plant, which is exploited by P. polibetes. These results show that a traditional pairwise approach is obviously inappropriate to assess the selective pressures operating within such multi-species systems

Resumo: O controle biológico é uma das táticas do manejo de pragas disponíveis aos produtores agrícolas, entretanto, não é empregado em grande escala no cenário da fruticultura nacional. Buscando incrementar as informações desse setor, especificamente na cultura do abacaxizeiro, em que o Brasil é um dos maiores produtores mundiais, objetivou-se avaliar a eficácia de parasitoides da família Trichogrammatidae no controle da broca-do-fruto do abacaxizeiro, Strymon megarus (Godart) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae), em condições de campo. O trabalho foi realizado em dois anos, sendo que no ano de 2016 foram liberadas as espécies Trichogramma pretiosum Riley e Trichogrammatoidea annulata De Santis (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) na dose de 200 mil parasitoides por hectare, sendo 50% de cada espécie. Ambos os controles foram aplicados em áreas de indução floral artificial e indução floral natural, deste modo, os tratamentos foram realizados em esquema fatorial 2x2. No ano de 2017, foi liberada apenas T. pretiosum na dose de 400 mil parasitoides por hectare, também em áreas de indução artificial e natural. Para complementar os resultados de campo, foram realizados testes de laboratório para a avaliação da seletividade de produtos formulados utilizados na produção do abacaxi. Os experimentos seguiram a padronização da "International Organization of Biological and Integrated Control of Noxious Animal and Plants" (IOBC).

Abstract: Biological control is one of the pests management tactics available to farmers, however, is not used on a large scale in the fruticulture. In order to supplement information of this sector, specifically in the pineapple crop, the present study evaluated the effect of parasitoids of the Trichogrammatidae family in the control of pineapple fruit borer, Strymon megarus (Godart) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) under field conditions. The work was carried out in two years, in 2016 Trichogramma pretiosum Riley and Trichogrammatoidea annulata De Santis (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) were released in a dose of 200 thousand insects per hectare in the percentage of 50% each species and, at the same time to the biological control, was held the conventional chemical control of the producer. Both controls were applied in areas of artificial floral induction and areas of natural floral induction, thus, the treatments were performed in 2x2 factorial scheme. In 2017, the methodology was different and only a specie T. pretiosum was released at dose of 400 thousand insects per hectare, in areas of artificial and natural induction. To complement the field results, bioassays were performed to evaluate the selectivity of formulates products used in the pineapple production. The bioassays followed the standardization of "International Organization of Biological and Integrated Control of Noxious Animal and Plants" (IOBC). The tests were divided into four stages, selectivity of the products to adults and pupal stage, and sub lethal effect of products on adults and sub lethal effect in the pupal stage. Based on a survey with producers and resellers, 10 products were chosen for the tests. In 2016 the biological control carried out by T. pretiosum and T. annulata was similar to conventional chemical control in areas with plants induced and in areas with no induced plants. The difference was in relation to the same type of ...

Night roosts of Lycaenids at Rongyu campus of National University of Tainan Student:WU, YI-TING Advisor:WANG, YI-KUANG Master’s Program of Environment and Ecology, Department of Ecoscience and Ecotechnology, National University of Tainan ABSTRACT Night roosts are animal’s nighttime roosting habitats. For diurnal animals, nighttime can place them at disadvantage; hence, the way they roost and the quality of the night roosts are related to their safety at night. This research probes the nocturnal behavior of adult Lycaenidae at Rongyu campus, National University of Tainan, from November 2015 to May 2016. In each nighttime observation, specifically between 5 pm and 6 am, we placed ten 3m x 3m quadrats at the sample regions to visually inspect and record the count of each species. We also characterized the night roosts of adult Lycaenidae by studying the plant species, plant parts, and roost heights. The study aims to investigate lycaenid’s roost preferences on plants and parts and whether the selection of night roosts would be affected by weeding. The result of the study identified 5 and 1 unknown lycaenid species with a total of 1698 roost counts. Zizina otis riukuensis, among the species, poses the greatest number of roost counts, followed by Zizeeria maha okinawana. Roosting plants are divided into 17 species, with longstem tridax Tridax procumbens (Asteraceae) posing the largest number of roost counts. The 6 recorded species were found roosting on longstem tridax. Zizina otis riukuensis prefers to roost in longstem tridax, little ironweed(Vernonia cinerea), lilac tasselflower(Emilia sonchifolia) and forked fimbry(Fimbristylis dichotoma) at night. Zizeeria maha okinawana tends to choose longstem tridax, little ironweed and lilac tasselflower. Both species prefer roosting at the flowers and the fruits of longstem tridax, along with little ironweed’s flowers. Concerning roost preferences on plants species and parts, the flowers and the fruits of longstem tridax and little ironweed’s flowers were found the greatest number of lycaenids. The average height for the roosts is 24.19 ± 0.16 centimeters above the ground. Compared to areas being weeded, lycaenids favored the areas that have not been weeded. The result of this study indicates that weeding at campus has caused damage to habitats of lycaenids, which seriously affects their inhabitation. In order to get a balance between campus environmental management and lycaenids’ living environment, it is recommended that school’s managerial ways on campus green spaces must be changed so as to put lycaenids protection as the top priority, and make human and living organisms coexist in a sustainable campus. Keywords:lycaenid, night roost, night roost selection, campus, weeding

The development of the immature stages of the S. kuafui was investigated, with no significance found among the three study areas Peichatienshan, Lalashan, and Tungshan. The temperature was positively correlated with the body sizes of the immatures or adult, and negatively correlated with the period the butterfly intakes to complete development. The threshold for development of immature stage was approximately 0 ℃, and the total effective accumulated temperature was approximately 600 day-degree. According to this result we concluded that the lycaenid was a rapid-development species and the fly period ought be from late May to early June. While marked-released and recaptured method was performed to estimate the population size, Bailey and Seber’s adjustments showed the same population size at approximately 3500 individuals per day. The relative population index was also calculated during 1998 and 1999 years. The active period of adult butterfly was observed to begin at 10 o’clock and continued to 12 o’clock a.m., then sharply declined after noon. In adult behavioral study, the females preferred laying eggs on the lower surfaces of the small beech twigs, and the attached spots were mostly 3-5 meters above the ground. The oviposition site was located near the dormancy buds, to presumably reduce the risk of failure in finding food by hatched larvae. The immature intaking habit showed the larva takes little soft, probably imposing little damage to the relict endemic host-plant, Fagus hayatae. Adults of S. kuafui are probably of high vagility as one marked male was retrieved 8.5 km away from the releasing site. The distribution of S. Kuafui is widening, as a few additional sites were recognized during this research. The survivorship of immatures was found to be reflected the weather condition and the pressure of other predator. Although the Taiwan beech was protected in the natural preserve area the rare butterfly id still subject to disturbances such as over-collecting and global warming. Our study suggests legislative protection to populations of this rare butterfly is indeed.

ABSTRACT Chilades pandava peripatria is native subspecies in Taiwan. Caterpillars feed on young leaves of Cycas taitungensis (native species) and Cycas revoluta (foreign species). During November 1997 to April 1999, we recorded the development of cycad leaf and the population size index of C. pandava peripatria once a month to study interaction between them. Sampling caterpillars from the experiment areas to feed in laboratory until emergence, then proceeded starch gel horizontal electrophoresis. We checked out 19 allozymes 26 loci, only Pgm-1 polymorphic. In the structure of C. pandava peripatria metapopulation, there are two long-persistent local areas were recognized as population centers therein: one is at Huang-yeh, Taitung, southern Taiwan; the other is at Chang-hua, central Taiwan. Evident heterozygosity in allozyme frequency was observed (Huang-yeh: p = 0.154; Chang-hua: p = 0.416). The estimated value of Wright’s F statistics FST was 0.176, indicating high degree of population differentiation. The differences and fluctuations of gene frequencies is correlated with environmental quality, which is composed of resource richness and local butterfly population sizes. Polymorphism in gene frequency of the butterfly population was not diminished due to frequent bottlenecking imposed by its host, such pattern is best explained by balancing selection rather than by genetic drift alone. From observations to population dynamics of C. pandava peripatria responding to the phenology of C. taitungensis, it was that C. pandava peripatria population dynamics was abviously regulated by intermittent budding of C. taitungensis. During the periods when the new bud was in short supply, C. pandava peripatria population was in dispersal mode, with individuals emigrated from source to sink and Pgm-1S gene was dominant,. Alternatively, Pgm-1F in C. pandava peripatria population increased when C. taitungensis began budding, C. pandava peripatria population was mainly in stay-at-home mode. This phenomenon evidently demonstrated reciprocal evolutionary interaction of coevolution between the butterfly and its host. Key words: Chilades pandava peripatria, Cycas taitungensis, allozymes, metapopulation, balancing selection, phenology, coevolution.

Fresh eggs were placed in a growth chamber under the conditions of 20, 25 and 30℃, 80±5% RH, and with a photoperiod of 12 h of light and 12 h of darkness. Hatching larvae were individually reared with new leaves of cycad for a series of observation on the development of the butterfly under different temperatures. Furthermore, we observed the longevity, fecundity and population parameters of Chilades pandava peripatria Hsu with the two-sex life table. The results showed that the developmental times of the egg, larva and pupa were 2.08-4.1, 7.0-15.2 and 5.29-13.76 days, respectively. The total developmental time from egg to adult was 14.34-32.96 days. The thermal summation was 249.17 degree-days and the temperature threshold was 12.71℃ as calculated by the linear model. At 20, 25 and 30℃, the longevities of adult males were 29.13, 10.71 and 8.69 days and those of females were 24.8, 14.64 and 8.36 days, respectively. Total fecundities at 3 temperatures were 34.30, 115.36 and 95.64 eggs, respectively. The intrinsic rate of increase (r) was 0.0466 at 20℃, 0.1305 at 25℃ and 0.2079/day at 30℃. The net reproductive rate (Ro) was 8.58 at 20℃, 40.37 at 25℃ and 52.60 at 30℃. The finite rate of increase (λ) was 1.0478 at 20℃, 1.1394 at 25℃ and 1.2311 at 30℃. The mean generation time (T) was 46.07 days at 20℃, 28.34 days at 25℃ and 19.06 days at 30℃. Accordingly, we concluded that the optimal temperature range for Chilades pandava peripatria population growth was 25-30℃.

Aulacaspis yasumatsui Takagi continues to threaten the extinction of the endemic and endangered Cycas taitungensis in Taiwan. Failure to understand its population demographic parameters in detail will continue to hinder the success of pest management practices. An in-depth knowledge of the development, survival, and fecundity of A. yasumatsui under different environmental conditions is necessary to understand its’ population growth. The demography of A. yasumatsui was studied in the laboratory based on the age-stage, two-sex life table at 20, 23, 25, 28, and 31℃, 70% RH, and a photoperiod of 16:8 (L:D) h. The intrinsic rate of increase (r) under these temperatures was 0.0586, 0.0698, 0.0889, 0.1036, and 0.0783 d-1, respectively. The net reproductive rate (R0) was 46.27, 47.78, 69.50, 96.08, and 56.65 offsprings per individual and the mean generation time (T) was 65.60, 55.81, 47.82, 44.15, and 51.42 d, respectively. A. yasumatsui does well at warmer temperatures (25-28℃); however, its performance is disrupted at lower temperatures. This study provides insight on how to minimize growth and surpress the population of A. yasumatsui and conservation of Cy. taitungensis; new cycad reserves should be set up in cooler areas in Taiwan. In contrast to A. yasumatsui, Chilades pandava peripatria Hsu and its host plant Cycas taitungensis are both endemic species to Taiwan. Ch. pandava peripatria has a specific association with buds and soft leaves of cycad plants. The introduced species, Cy. revoluta, have prolonged budding periods and extensive auxiliary buds that extensively contribute to the outbreak of Ch. pandava peripatria. An in-depth knowledge of the development, survival and fecundity of Ch. pandava peripatria under different environmental conditions is necessary to understand the population growth of Ch. pandava peripatria. The demography of Ch. pandava peripatria was also studied based on the age-stage, two-sex life table at 20, 23, 25, 28, and 31℃, 70% RH, and a photoperiod of 16:8 (L:D) h under laboratory conditions. Ch. pandava peripatria completed its development under tested temperatures but did not produce offspring at 23℃. Due to the high egg mortality at 20℃, the data at this given temperature were excluded from this study. Under 25, 28 and 31℃ the intrinsic rate of increase (r) was 0.1846, 0.2919 and 0.1412 d-1, respectively. The net reproductive rate (R0) was 165.47, 262.32, and 56.68 offspring per individual and the mean generation time (T) was 27.72, 19.10, and 28.67 d, respectively. Our results indicated that Ch. pandava peripatria is highly adaptable to environments where temperature ranges from 25 to 31℃.

Lampides boeticus is a common butterfly, and the Dolichos lablab is its main host plant. From October to the comming February, the blooming season of Dolichos lablab, the population of L. boeticus in Taichung area remains growing. During June and July in the summer, Crotalaria becomes its host plant, and therefore, the population moves to mountain areas (500~1500 m A.S.L).When L. boeticus was reared in different temperatures, the developmental time was obviously shortened as temperatures increased. At 15℃, the days needed for the completion of development of eggs, larvae, pupae were 9.3, 40.4 and 28.0 days respectively; at 20℃, 7.5, 22.6 and 13.2 days respectively; at 25℃, 6.0, 16.4 and 9.7 days respectively; at 30℃, 5.0, 11.6 and 6.7 days respectively. While at 10℃, eggs would die. If larvae were moved to 10℃, they would develop slowly, eventually die.When 4th instar larvae were fed on 4 different artificial diets, its development time was longer than those fed on natural food. Among them, the diet B2 was most efficient; When reared at 25℃, male L. boeticus took 7.9 and 9.7 days for the development of 4th instar larvae to pupa, and a pupal weighed 60.6 mg; the female required 9.3 and 12.4 days respectively, weighing 68.1mg. Those 4 diets had no evident effect on the longevity of adults. On the condition that when larvae were fed on diet, and then after they became adults, they were fed on only water, the longevity of the male was 5.1 to 5.9 days and that of the female 5.6 to 10.2 days. If adults were fed on 5% honey solution, their longevity was apparently longer than those fed on only water; the longevity of the male was 6.8 to 7.7 days and that of the female 15.1 to 17.1 days. The intake of the different diets during the 4thlarvae stage did not influence the numbers of eggs in ovaries. The numbers of eggs were determined by the nutrition that adults took and their longevity. The longer they lived and more nutritious their diets were, the female had 9.8 to 14.0 developed eggs. However, If they were fed on 5% honey solution everyday, the numbers of eggs totaled 17.4 to 19.3.After the 4 different diets were storedfor 1 month, fed on Diet B2 had the highest pupation rate, 93.3%, and emergence rate, 93.3%, and the pupae weighed 49.7 mg. When they were stored for 2 months, those fed on them had much lower pupation rate. Diet B3 caused the lowest pupation rate 46.7%, lowest emergence rate 33.3% and the pupae weighed only 42.3 mg.

There are 186 species of the tribe Theclini (Lycaenidae, Theclinae) worldwide, with most of them distributed in eastern Asia. At present, the genera within the tribe are so far poorly defined, and different authors usually apply different generic concepts, which causes considerable controversies over the higher taxonomy of tribe Theclini. Therefore, the study intends to present a phylogeny and the evolution of host plant use. In this study, 107 samples were collected, including 60 species in 29 genera for the ingroup and 9 species in 6 genera for the outgroup. And I downloaded sequences of 10 species in 6 genera from National Center for Biotechnology Information ((NCBI). Characters from the mitochondrial genes for cytochrome oxidases I (COI) and II (COII) and from the nuclear gene for elongation factor 1α (Ef-1α) were used to reconstruct the phylogeny of the tribe Theclini using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic methods. The result indicated that the tribe Theclini is monophyletic composed of three monophyletic groups. Besides, 5 genera, Chrysozephyrus, Shirozuozephyrus, Teratozephyrus, Euaspa and Ussuriana, in 33 genera are not monophyletic groups. Based on the phylogenetic tree, I put the genus Shirozuozephyrus under the genus Chrysozephyrus and the genus Fujiokaozephyrus and genus Uedaozephyrus under the genus Teratozephyrus. Besides, the results suggested that the establishment of many new genera and monotypic genera seem to be necessary. At the species-level, based on the low genetic distance and the similarity of the wing patterns and the genitalia, I considered Cordelia comes and Cordelia wilemaniella and Chrysozephyrus hisamatsusanus and Chrysozephyrus splendidulus are the same species respectively. As for the evolution of host plant use, on the basis of the present results, it was possible to propose that the ancestral state of the tribe Theclini is the use of the family Fagaceae as host plants, and the use of other host plants derived from this family.
