摘要

The larva of the tortoise beetle. Hemisphaerota cyanea (Chry- somelidae. Cassidinae). constructs a thatch from long filamentous fecal strands, beneath which it is totally concealed. The thatch is not discarded at molting but is enlarged by addition of strands as the larva grows. Thatch construction begins when the larva hatches from the egg. Pupation occurs beneath the thatch. Two predators, a coccinellid beetle larva (cycloneda sanguineal) and a pentatomid bug (Stirerus anchorago), were shown to be thwarted by the thatch. However, one predator. a carabid beetle (Calleida viridipennis), feeds on the larva by either forcing itself beneath the thatch or chewing its way into it. The attack behavior is stereo- typed, suggesting that the beetle feeds on Hemtwhaerota larvae as a matter of routine.
