摘要

Phenology shifts and range expansions cause organisms to experience novel day length-temperature correlations.Depending on the temporal niche,organisms may benefit or suffer from changes in day length,thus potentially affecting phenological adaptation.We assessed the impact of day length changes on larvae of Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens) and Episyrphus balteatus (De Geer),both of which prey on aphids.Larvae of E.balteatus are night-active,whereas those of C.carnea appear to be crepuscular.We subjected both species in climate chambers to day lengths of 16 ∶ 8 L ∶ D and,to circumvent diapause responses,20 ∶ 4L∶ D.We recorded development times and predation rates of both species.E.balteatus grew 13％ faster in the 16 ∶ 8L ∶ D treatment and preyed on significantly more aphids.In contrast,C.carnea grew 13％ faster in the 20∶4L ∶ D treatment and higher predation rates in 20 ∶ 4L ∶ D were marginally significant.Our results show that day length affects development and predation,but that the direction depends on species.Such differences in the use of day length may alter the efficiency of biocontrol agents in a changing climate.
