Lipid storage in the pre-imago and young adult plusia gamma
1974
MACAULAY, E.D.M.
Changes in live weight, dry weight and fat content of larvae, pupae and adults of P. gamma were assessed. Fat increased during larval life and decreased during the pupal stage. On emergence 11% of the dry weight of adult moths was due to fat. This amount is sufficient to provide energy for a flight of about 20 hours by a large moth. On average a moth flew for 3 hours without feeding.
