Resumo: Brigas territoriais entre machos de insetos voadores são resolvidas das mais variadas formas. Em borboletas, existem evidencias de que tamanho, idade e motivação são importantes determinantes das chances de vitória. No entanto, as regras utilizadas nas brigas, o contexto biológico que afeta a intensidade dos comportamentos agonisticos e o papel funcional das características dos machos na geração de custos durante os confrontos ainda são pouco conhecidos. Neste trabalho investiguei uma serie de características que podem influenciar os custos e benefícios dos confrontos territoriais utilizando as espécies de satirineos Hermeuptychia hermes (Fabricius, 1775), Moneuptychia soter (Buttler, 1877) e Paryphthimoides phronius (Buttler, 1867) como modelos de estudo. No capitulo 1 investiguei se as disputas intra-especificas pela posse de territórios em machos de H. hermes e de M. soter ocorrem com contato físico e quais podem ser as características funcionalmente relevantes para a distinção entre machos territoriais e não territoriais. Para tanto, documentei as brigas entre machos utilizando filmagens de alta velocidade e realizei comparações morfológicas e fisiológicas entre machos possuidores de territórios (residentes) e machos que ocuparam territórios nos quais os residentes originais foram removidos (intrusos). Machos residentes de H. hermes apresentaram massa corporal e muscular similares as dos seus pares intrusos, porem, possuíram menor desgaste alar e maior quantidade de lipídeos. Machos residentes de M. soter, por outro lado, foram mais pesados que os machos intrusos que ocuparam seus territórios. Machos de H. hermes podem dividir a interação em vôos circulares, espirais ascendentes e perseguições lineares, enquanto machos de M. soter usam vôos circulares mais lentos, os quais são seguidos por perseguições lineares e emissões de som (estalos). Contatos físicos não foram registrados para nenhuma espécie. No capitulo 2 investiguei o papel da residência previa na resolução de conflitos territoriais entre machos de H. hermes. Ao induzir disputas entre dois machos que se comportaram como residentes (um residente original e um residente induzido) e compara-las com disputas naturais entre machos residentes e intrusos, foi possível demonstrar que a residência previa aumenta as chances de vitória em um combate. Massa corporal afetou positivamente as chances de vitória nas brigas induzidas, mas não nas brigas naturais. Finalmente no capitulo 3, investiguei a influencia da presença de recursos alimentares no estabelecimento de territórios de acasalamento por machos de P. phronius. Machos desta espécie defendem sítios de acasalamento localizados em manchas de sol sem recursos evidentes. No entanto, manchas de sol previamente desocupadas passaram a ser defendidas depois de receberem frutas fermentadas. Apesar de machos que se estabeleceram nestes locais aparentemente se alimentarem das frutas, experimentos de escolha de territórios sugerem que eles preferem defender sítios sem recursos e utilizam a defesa de áreas com alimento como tática alternativa de acasalamento. Este estudo representa a primeira investigação deste tipo de variação nas táticas de acasalamento em borboletas. Alem de auxiliar a compreensão da evolução de determinados sistemas de localização de parceiros, esse sistema permite testar qual a implicação da existência de mais de uma tática reprodutiva na intensidade dos confrontos territoriais entre machos
Abstract: Territorial conflicts in flying insects may be resolved through many different ways. In male butterflies, size, age and motivation are often reported as important determinants of the winning chances. However, the rules used when fighting, the biological context that affects the intensity of agonistic behaviors, and the functional role of male traits in the contests costs generation are poorly known. In this study I investigated a series of characteristics that may influence the costs and benefits of territorial conflicts using the satyrine species Hermeuptychia hermes (Fabricius, 1775), Moneuptychia soter (Buttler, 1877), and Paryphthimoides phronius (Buttler, 1867) as study organisms. In chapter 1, I used high-speed video imagery to investigate whether intraspecific disputes between male H. hermes and male M. soter occur with physical contact. Additionally, I removed resident males from their defended sites and the subsequent intruders that established on those areas after the resident removal to assess if wing wear, body mass, fat content and flight muscle ratio are important determinants of male residency status. Resident males of H. hermes were similar in body weight and thoracic muscle mass to their intruder rivals, but had fewer wing wear and higher fat content. Resident males of M. soter, on the other hand, were heavier than intruder males. Male H. hermes divided their interaction in up to three phases consisting of circular flights, ascending spirals and back and forth persecutions, whereas male M. soter used much slower circular flights that were often followed by linear persecutions and clicking sound emissions. Physical contacts were not observed for both species. In chapter 2, I investigated the role of previous residence on contest resolution in the butterfly H. hermes. By inducing territorial interactions between males that behaved as residents (one original resident and another resident-induced one) and comparing them with natural contests between resident and intruder males, it was possible to show that previous residence increases the chances of victory. Body mass positively affected the winning chances in the induced fights, but was unimportant among the natural ones. Finally in chapter 3, I investigated the role of feeding resources in the territory establishment by males of the butterfly P. phronius. Male of this species typically defend sunny clearings on the forest edge which do not contain any evident resource. However, previously undefended sunny clearings were occupied by territorial males after receiving soft fermenting fruit. Although males which established on sites containing feeding resources seem to forage on the fermenting fruit, territory selection experiments shows that males prefer to defend sites without resources. This type of variation in the mate locating tactics has never been previously investigated for butterflies. In addition of helping the understanding of the evolutionary processes leading to different mate-locating strategies, this system allows the testing of the influence of different reproductive behaviors on the intensity of territorial conflicts between males
