Brazilian Cerrado Folivore and Florivore Caterpillars: How Different are They
2009
Morais, Helena C. | Hay, John Du Vall | Diniz, Ivone R.
Because of the large differences between flower buds and leaves as food resources we predict that florivore caterpillars compared with folivores would present: (1) higher degree of dietary specificity; (2) higher abundance; and (3) lower species richness. Based on emerged adults from caterpillars collected on leaves and inflorescences our results showed that the florivore fauna was strongly dominated by a few species with higher abundance and dietary specificity than the folivore fauna.
