In 2004 and 2005, we investigated the distribution of the Glanville fritillary butterfly ( Melitaea cinxia) and its host plant in the Tianshan Mountains of China, in order to clarify its habitat utilization. Female butterflies were
almost captured on dry meadows on slopes, where plenty of host plant ( Veronica spicata) is distributed. Although there are host plants on meadows at higher altitude (>2,050 m), no butterfly was found there. Among
the meadows with host plants, a patch of dry meadow (newly-found meadow) was considered as a natal site because of the high
density and freshness of butterflies. Unlike females, male butterflies were almost captured in valleys, where there are no
host plants and fewer nectar plants. It might be related to specific mating system of M. cinxia in the study site, or specific environmental factors. Thus valleys are important habitat for males. Although the status of
M. cinxia is yet unknown in China, we give some suggestions for conservation based on this study. First, dry meadows with host plants
are the essential component for persistence of M. cinxia, among which the specific sites with more favourable conditions, such as natal site, are most important. Second, as a site
with adult resource requirement, valleys should be included as part of the habitat of the butterfly. Finally, meadows at higher
altitude are not utilized at present but they are potential habitats which need to be maintained for any shifts in altitudinal
range in response to global warming in the future. Hence, the trade-off of present cost and future benefit should be taken
into account when formulating a conservation strategy for M. cinxia in the Tianshan Mountains of China. 相似文献

Abstract The tolerance to temperature increase was tested for Halobates individuals collected during two cruises in the western tropical Pacific Ocean (MR‐06‐05‐Leg 3, December 21, 2006–January 12, 2007, 0°N‐8°N; KH‐06‐02‐Leg 5, August 18–31, 2006, 12°N–17°N). High temperature coma experiments were conducted on adults and 5th instar larvae. On average, H. sericeus (distributed in the wide latitude zone of 5°N–40°N), H. germanus (distributed in the moderate latitude zone of 0°N–35°N) and H. micans (distributed mainly in the lower latitudes around the equator) were on average paralyzed at 35.6°C (SD: 0.89), 32.9°C (SD: 2.17) and 31.6°C (SD: 2.60), respectively ( P= 0.035). According to the current dynamics during the cruise, the colony of H. sericeus at one station (5°N 137°E) may have been transferred from the northern area of 14°N by three currents (North Equatorial Current, Mindanao Current and North Equatorial Counter Current) to the area of 5°N 138°E. Extremely high heat resistance was shown by the adults of H. germanus in the sea area around the equator. Dynamic current and air movements in this area around the equator, that is a “warm seawater pool”, could be hypothesized to be related to the high resistance to heat shown in this study. 相似文献

The second part of the publication is devoted to the Melamphaes species (family Melamphaidae), which are characterized by 20 and more rakers on the first gill arch, by seven soft rays in
the ventral fin, by absence of a temporal spine, by 14–15 rays in the pectoral fin, and by 11 abdominal vertebrae. M. polylepis is characterized by circumtropical range (Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, western and central Pacific Ocean). Newly described
species M. falsidicus is described from the northern Atlantic Ocean, where it was sampled between 34°N and 58°N. Before, this species was defined
as M. microps. Another newly described species, M. pachystomus, is described along the Peruvian Coast. M. macrocephalus is redescribed. This species inhabits the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (approximately between 30°N and 23°S). One of the
studied specimens of M. macrocephalus was characterized by larger body size ( SL = 128 mm) than was described before for this species. M. leprus is known currently by single findings from the eastern tropical Atlantic Ocean (between 11°N and 4°S). This species was also
found in the samples obtain in the Gulf of Guinea. 相似文献

Two species, M. danae Ebeling and M. pumilis Ebeling, belonging to the species group “ M. simus” are described in the final part of the revision of oligo-raker species of the genus Melamphaes (Melamphaidae) (≤19 gill rakers on the first gill arch). The species M. danae is distributed in the Indian and Pacific oceans between 30° N and 30° S. In the Pacific Ocean, it is known up to 112° W. The species M. pumilis is distributed in the North Atlantic between 17° and 45° N, and the main catches have been conducted in the western part of the ocean. In the eastern part of the ocean, the catches are registered up to 28° W. A key for the identification of 21 oligo-raker species of the genus Melamphaes is presented. 相似文献

Temperature is one of the most important environmental factors that affect organisms, especially ectotherms, due to its effects on protein stability. Understanding the general rules that govern thermostability changes in proteins to adapt high-temperature environments is crucial. Here, we report the amino acid substitutions of phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) related to thermostability in the Glanville fritillary butterfly ( Melitaea cinxia, Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae). The PGI encoded by the most common allele in M. cinxia in the Chinese population (G3-PGI), which is more thermal tolerant, is more stable under heat stress than that in the Finnish population (D1-PGI). There are 5 amino acid substitutions between G3-PGI and D1-PGI. Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that the combination of amino acid substitutions of H35Q, M49T, and I64V may increase PGI thermostability. These substitutions alter the 3D structure to increase the interaction between 2 monomers of PGI. Through molecular dynamics simulations, it was found that the amino acid at site 421 is more stable in G3-PGI, confining the motion of the α-helix 420–441 and stabilizing the interaction between 2 PGI monomers. The strategy for high-temperature adaptation through these 3 amino acid substitutions is also adopted by other butterfly species ( Boloria eunomia, Aglais urticae, Colias erate, and Polycaena lua) concurrent with M. cinxia in the Tianshan Mountains of China, i.e., convergent evolution in butterflies. 相似文献

White mold is a major disease in commercial soybean production. An effective measure to reduce the negative effects of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is the use of bio-fungicides. Strains of Coniothyrium minitans were isolated and efficacy tests against S. sclerotiorum was studied. The efficacy of pycnidiospores sprays of strain N09 (GenBank Accession No HQ908274) from Iowa, USA and strain CON/M/91-08 of Contans® WG were compared in a series of experiments. Sclerotia viability was significantly ( P < 0.05) lower in both sclerotia-infested-sterilized-soils (SISS) and sclerotia-infested-unsterilized-soils (SIUS) sprayed with N09 compared with CON/M/91-08 and control at 3°C for 75d and 90d sampling. Similarly, sclerotia viability was significantly ( P < 0.05) lower at 23°C for 45, 60 and 75d sampling in SISS and 45, 75 and 90 d sampling in SIUS compared with CON/M/91-08 and control. In contrast, viability of N09 colonies were significantly ( P < 0.05) higher than that of CON/M/91-08 both at 3°C and 23°C in SISS across sampling periods. While in SIUS, N09 colonies were significantly higher at 3°C for 15, 30, 45, 75 and 90 d sampling, and at 23°C for 30, 60 and 75 d sampling. Also, (1) N09 had a faster growth rate and produced 1.5 times more pycnidiospores than CON/M/91-08; (2) mycoparasitism by N09 was faster than CON/M/91-08; and (3) co-inoculation of sclerotia and the strains, N09 showed lower sclerotia reproduction than CON/M/91-08. Our data suggest that the new strain N09 has a greater efficiency than CON/M/91-08 in killing sclerotia. 相似文献

The Emma field cricket, Teleogryllus emma (Ohmachi & Matsuura), distributed between 43°N and 30°N in the Japanese archipelago, is univoltine and overwinters in the egg stage. Its eggs hatch on the slope of the Oishi Dam (38.03°N, 139.57°E, 160–170 m a.s.l.) in late June, adults begin emerging from late August, and oviposition lasts until early October. Oviposition is limited to the period when the water level of the Oishi Dam is low. The period from egg hatching to adult emergence is approximately 1 month shorter than that of the T. emma population on the Arakawa riverside (38.09°N, 139.57°E, 29 m a.s.l.), which is approximately only 7 km from the Oishi Dam. The egg and body sizes of T. emma on the slope of the Oishi Dam were smaller than those of T. emma on the Arakawa riverside, and the egg and nymphal periods were shorter; these variations were inherited by the next generation of T. emma. The egg period, nymphal period and head width of T. emma on the dam slope correspond to those of the populations near 40°N. Several traits of the T. emma population on the dam slope were naturally selected by adapting to the isolated environment, resulting in the genetic variations. However, their variations were small and the period after isolation is short, suggesting that it is in the early stages of speciation. 相似文献

Long-tailed macaques ( Macaca fascicularis fascicularis) are widely distributed in Southeast Asia and are morphologically and genetically (Tosi et al. in International Journal of Primatology 23:161–178, 2002) distinguishable on either side of the Isthmus of Kra ( ca. 10.5°N). We compared the somatometry and body color of 15 local populations of long-tailed macaques in Thailand distributed
over areas from 6.5°N to 16.3°N and also a Thai rhesus macaque population at 17.2°N. Limb proportions and body color variation
follow the geographical trend. However, contrary to a previous report, body size does not decrease with latitude in the northern
group and also in the southern (southerly distributed) rhesus macaque. Relative tail length (RTL) and color contrast in yellow
between the back and thigh are the sole traits that distinctively separate the 2 groups: the southern group has a long relative
tail length (RTL >125%) and small color contrast, whereas the northern group has a short RTL (<120%) and large color contrast.
The southern rhesus macaques appear to have somatometric and body color traits that follow the geographical trend in long-tailed
macaques, though they maintain their distinctive species-specific traits of shorter RTL ( ca. 55%), shorter relative facial length, and a bipartite body color pattern. Researchers assume that the northern group of long-tailed
macaques and the southern rhesus macaques had undergone partial introgression with each other. Montane refugia present during
the glacial period are localities in which introgression occurred in long-tailed macaques. 相似文献

Maesopsis eminii is referred to as one of the most widely distributed African tree species. However, its occurrence in Africa has never been mapped and little is known as to how this species can sustain in different environments. To gain insight into Maesopsis’ ecology, we (i) made a synthesis of its functional trait data from the literature, (ii) investigated phenological patterns using data on four M. eminii trees from Yangambi, DR Congo, (iii) assessed an empirical provenance trial from Uganda on 600 Maesopsis trees and (iv) synthesized geo‐referenced point location maps of Maesopsis entailing WorldClim precipitation and temperature and FAO soils, rainfall and ecological zones for Africa. We found M. eminii to straddle the equator equidistantly in terms of latitude (10.97°N and 10.98°S) covering five forest types where twenty soil types and variable rainfall regimes support complex plant biodiversity. Maesopsis eminii was, however, largely concentrated in the tropical rainforest ecosystem which contains fertile Orthic Ferralsol soils. More than 97% of the point locations were found where annual precipitation was >1000 mm, and 82% occurred where average annual temperature was 22–28°C. Its functional traits, phenology and provenance trial findings explained its occurrence in Africa. 相似文献

Elevated temperatures and nutrients are degrading coral reef ecosystems, but the understanding of how early life stages of reef corals respond to these stressors remains limited. Here, we test the impact of temperature (mean ~ 27 °C vs. ~ 29 °C) and nitrate and phosphate enrichment (ambient, + 5 µM nitrate, + 1 µM phosphate and combined + 5 µM nitrate with 1 µM phosphate) on coral larvae using three Hawaiian coral species with different modes of symbiont transmission and reproduction: Lobactis scutaria (horizontal, gonochoric broadcast spawner), Pocillopora acuta (vertical, hermaphroditic brooder) and Montipora capitata (vertical, hermaphroditic broadcast spawner). Temperature and nutrient effects were species specific and appear antagonistic for L. scutaria and M. capitata, but not for P. acuta. Larvae survivorship in all species was lowest under nitrate enrichment at 27 °C. M. capitata and L. scutaria survivorship increased at 29 °C. However, positive effects of warming on survivorship were lost under high nitrate, but phosphate attenuated nitrate effects when N/P ratios were balanced. P. acuta larvae exhibited high survivorship (> 91%) in all treatments and showed little change in larval size, but lower respiration rates at 29 °C. Elevated nutrients (+N+P) led to the greatest loss in larvae size for aposymbiotic L. scutaria, while positive growth in symbiotic M. capitata larvae was reduced under warming and highest in +N+P treatments. Overall, we report a greater sensitivity of broadcast spawners to warming and nutrient changes compared to a brooding coral species. These results suggest variability in biological responses to warming and nutrient enrichment is influenced by life-history traits, including the presence of symbionts (vertical transmission), in addition to nutrient type and nutrient stoichiometry. 相似文献

Indirect interactions among species can greatly affect their abundances and the structure of the community they live in. Using
a field experiment, we tested the hypothesis that congeneric butterfly species interact indirectly through a shared pupal
parasitoid. We predicted that symmetrical apparent competition would lead to high parasitism of both species, and the effect
would increase with regional butterfly abundance. Instead, parasitism of one host, Melitaea cinxia, was reduced in the presence of the second host, M. athalia. Parasitism of M. athalia did not differ whether or not M. cinxia was present. This pattern did not vary with regional butterfly abundance, though overall rate of parasitism did. Details
of the experiment suggest that the apparent commensalism occurred because M. cinxia pupae are protected by silk tents whereas M. athalia are exposed, causing locally foraging parasitoids to favour the more accessible host where the two are present together.
The local short-term apparent commensalism favouring M. cinxia opposes the landscape scale trend, in which parasitism increases where butterfly density is high. The outcome of this study
illustrates short-term apparent commensalism, that host suitability can depend on relative accessibility, and that indirect
interactions occurring at different scales may be in opposition. 相似文献

In the third part of the revision of the genus Melamphaes Melamphaidae (Melamphaidae), we examine multirakered species (20 and more rakers at the first gill arch) with seven soft
rays in the ventral fin that have a posttemporal (temporal) spine directed anteriorly-upwards, with 14–15 rays in the pectoral
fin, and 11 (rarely 12) trunk vertebrae. M. suborbitalis inhabits the Atlantic Ocean (in the north up to 57°N, in the south, up to 40°S), the Indian Ocean (is known in its southwestern
part), and the western part of the Pacific Ocean. There is no significant evidence on catches of this species in the eastern
part of the Pacific Ocean. Apparently, M. suborbitalis is absent in the tropical waters of the oceans. Until recently, M. parini was known from the holotype caught in the Sea of Okhotsk. Two specimens of this rare species: from the central (the area
of the Hawaiian Islands) and the northeastern part of the Pacific Ocean are reported. M. acanthomus is an endemic of the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean where it is known along the coasts of America from California to the
northern coast of Chile (approximately between 33°N and 21°S). 相似文献

Indigenous soil populations of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii from Arctic and subarctic regions have been characterised with emphasis on chromosomal and symbiotic genes. Three clover
species were used to trap rhizobia from soils along a latitudinal gradient from 78°N to 60°N in Norway. For the first time
R. l. bv. trifolii was isolated from Svalbard at 78°N. Under the extreme conditions in the Arctic, rhizobia have survived as saprophytes and
in symbiosis with clover legumes. The chromosomal diversity of the soil populations was mapped by rep-PCR. Separation of chromosomal
types were strongly influenced by geographic origin. Symbiotic genes, the nodEF and nifDK IGS gene regions, were investigated by PCR-RFLP. The nifDK IGS were more conserved than the nodEF genes. Sym plasmids were widely distributed in different chromosomal types and across the latitudinal gradient. 相似文献

Nitrogenous excretion in two snails, Littorina saxatilis (high intertidal) and L. obtusata (low intertidal) was studied in relation to temperature acclimation (at 4° and 21°C), including total N excretion rates,
the fraction of urea in N excretion, corresponding O:N ratios and the partitioning of deaminated protein between catabolic
and anabolic processes at 4°, 11° and 21°C. Aggregate N excretion rates in both species showed no significant compensatory
adjustments following acclimation. Total weight specific N excretion rates at 21°C were higher in standard 3 mg L. saxatilis (739 ng N mg −1 h −1) than standard 5 mg L. obtusata (257 ng N mg −1 h −1) for snails acclimated to 21°C. Comparisons of Q 10 values of total weight specific N excretion to Q 10 values for weight specific oxygen consumption ({xxV}O 2) between 4° to 11 °C and 11° to 21°C indicated that, while total rates of catabolic metabolism ({xxV}O 2) and protein deamination in L. obtusata were essentially parallel, the relationship between N excretion and {xxV}O 2 in L. saxatilis revealed the partitioning of a larger share of deaminated protein carbon into anabolism at 4° and 21°C than at 11°C. Urea
N accounted for a larger share of aggregate N excreted in L. saxatilis than in L. obtusata, but in both species urea N is a greater proportion of total N excreted when acclimated at 4°C (urea N: ammonia N ratio range:
1 to 2.15) than in snails acclimated to 21°C (urea N: ammonia N ratio range: 0.46 to 1.39). Molar O:N ratios indicate that
the proportion of metabolism supported by protein catabolism is greater in L. saxatilis (O:N range: 2.5–8.4) than in L. obtusata (O:N range: 7.3–13.0). In both species, regardless of acclimation temperature, the O:N ratios are generally lowest (high
protein catabolism) at 4°C and highest at 21°C. 相似文献

Macaca fascicularis is broadly distributed in Southeast Asia across 30° of latitude and 35° of longitude (Indochinese Peninsula, Isthmus of Kra, Malay Peninsula, Greater and Lesser Sunda Islands, Philippine Islands, and numerous small, neighboring islands). The range is divisible into 1) a core area comprised of mainland Southeast Asia, Borneo, Sumatra, and Java (large land masses interconnected during the last glacial maximum, 18,000 B. P.); 2) shallow-water fringing islands, which are smaller islands connected to the core area during the last glacial maximum; and 3) deep-water fringing islands, which are peripheral islands not connected to the core area during the last glacial maximum. Skull length was used to study effects of latitude and insularity on patterns of size variation. The data are from 802 adult M. fascicularis specimens from 140 core-area localities, 63 shallow-water islands, and 29 deep-water islands. Sex-specific polynomial regressions of skull length on latitude were used to describe skull length variation in the core area. These regressions served as standards for evaluating variation among samples from shallow-water and deep-water islands. The core area exhibits Bergmannian latitudinal size clines through most of the species range. Thus, skull length decreases from about 8°S (Java) to the equator (Sumatra and Borneo), then increases as far north as about 13°N (Isthmus of Kra). Farther north, to the northernmost Indochinese localities at about 17°N, skull length in M. fascicularis decreases with increasing latitude, contrary to Bergmann's rule. Latitudinal size variation in shallow-water fringing islands generally parallels that in the core area. However, skull length tends to be smaller than in the core area at similar latitudes. Deep-water fringing islands are markedly more variable, with relatively small specimens in the Lesser Sunda Islands and relatively large specimens in the Nicobar Islands. These analyses illustrate how a primate species may vary in response to latitudinal temperature variation and to isolation. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Microplitis similis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a solitary endoparasitoid of Spodoptera litura larvae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Here, the effects of constant temperature (18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33 and 36 °C) on the development and fecundity of M. similis developing in S. litura were studied in the laboratory to clarify the range of its potential distribution and better understand its potential as a biological control agent. The developmental duration of M. similis varied from 10.6 (33 °C) to 27.9 days (18 °C). The developmental threshold temperature and effective accumulative temperature of M. similis were 9.96 °C and 231.14 Degree-days, respectively. The average adult longevity of M. similis ranged from 5.1 (33 °C) to 26.8 days (18 °C). The maximum fecundity of the parasitoid was observed at 27 and 30 °C, which were 43.07 and 39.73 eggs, respectively. The minimum fecundity of the parasitoid was observed at 18 °C, which was 8.27 eggs. The intrinsic rate of increase ( rm) and finite rate of increase ( λ) of M. similis were the highest at 30 °C. The net reproduction rate ( R0) was the highest at 27 °C and 30 °C, which were 44.34 and 40.39, respectively. We concluded that temperatures in the range 27–30 °C are the most suitable for development and reproduction of M. similis. Our study provides detailed basic information for development and reproduction of M. similis under different temperature conditions. 相似文献

In this study the genetic variability of Rhipicephalus sanguineus within Brazil and its relation with ticks of the same group from different continents was evaluated. Mitochondrial 12S and
16S rDNA fragments of R. sanguineus from seven Brazilian States were sequenced and compared to GenBank sequences of R. sanguineus and R. turanicus ticks from Africa, Asia, Europe, South America and USA. Results indicate a relatively high intra-specific variability between
Brazilian samples but also a global latitude linked distribution pattern of at least two major R. sanguineus groups; one group distributed from latitude 25°N to 22°S including R. sanguineus from Brazil, Taiwan and Thailand and R. turanicus from Zambia and Zimbabwe, and the other group found closer to the poles, roughly above 29°N and below 30°S with ticks from
Argentina, Uruguay, France, Oklahoma (USA), Israel and Egypt. 相似文献

The functional response of adult Nabis kinbergii (Hemiptera: Nabidae) to density of diamondback moth Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) was investigated under laboratory conditions. Holling' s (1959) type Ⅱ model was found to be a good fit for the observed functional response of this predator. The numbers of P. xylostella consumed increased with temperature from 15℃ to 35℃. The maximum number of prey killed was observed at 35℃, with average of 10.3 and 8.3 forth instar larvae consumed by adult females and males of N. kinbergii, respectively. The predation of N. kinbergii on P. xylostella increased with successive immature stages. The number of prey consumed by predators decreased as the body size of prey increased. An average of 131 eggs or 95 larvae of P. xylostella were killed by a single of female adult in 24 hours at 24"C. The pupae of P. xylostella were observed to be eaten by fifth instar nymphs and adults N. kinbergiiin numbers of less than an average of 0.7 pupae per predator in 24 hours at 24"C. Predation preference by N. kinbergii was also investigated. The number of P. xylostella and Myzus persicae killed by female N. kinbergii was not significantly different, but males killed significantly more P. xylostella than M. persicae. Both eggs and larvae of P. xylosteUa were killed in significantly greater number than those of Pieris rapae in the same feeding arena. 相似文献

Habitat fragmentation and climate change are both prominent manifestations of global change, but there is little knowledge on the specific mechanisms of how climate change may modify the effects of habitat fragmentation, for example, by altering dynamics of spatially structured populations. The long‐term viability of metapopulations is dependent on independent dynamics of local populations, because it mitigates fluctuations in the size of the metapopulation as a whole. Metapopulation viability will be compromised if climate change increases spatial synchrony in weather conditions associated with population growth rates. We studied a recently reported increase in metapopulation synchrony of the Glanville fritillary butterfly ( Melitaea cinxia) in the Finnish archipelago, to see if it could be explained by an increase in synchrony of weather conditions. For this, we used 23 years of butterfly survey data together with monthly weather records for the same period. We first examined the associations between population growth rates within different regions of the metapopulation and weather conditions during different life‐history stages of the butterfly. We then examined the association between the trends in the synchrony of the weather conditions and the synchrony of the butterfly metapopulation dynamics. We found that precipitation from spring to late summer are associated with the M. cinxia per capita growth rate, with early summer conditions being most important. We further found that the increase in metapopulation synchrony is paralleled by an increase in the synchrony of weather conditions. Alternative explanations for spatial synchrony, such as increased dispersal or trophic interactions with a specialist parasitoid, did not show paralleled trends and are not supported. The climate driven increase in M. cinxia metapopulation synchrony suggests that climate change can increase extinction risk of spatially structured populations living in fragmented landscapes by altering their dynamics. 相似文献

1. This study provides evidence that a heliophilic butterfly, the Glanville fritillary ( Melitaea cinxia) has adapted differently to environmental variation across latitudes and elevations. 2. In cool air, basking M. cinxia orient themselves perpendicular to the sun's rays to gain heat and take off. During flight, solar heating is reduced because orientation perpendicular to the sun is no longer possible and convective cooling occurs. Consequently, M. cinxia have been shown to suffer net heat loss in flight, even in full sunshine. When flight duration is restricted in this way, the takeoff temperature becomes an important thermal adaptation. 3. Using a thermal imaging camera, takeoff temperatures were measured in experimental butterflies. Butterflies from the northern range limit in Finland took flight at slightly hotter temperatures than butterflies from the southern limit in Spain, and much hotter than butterflies from the elevational limit (1900–2300 m) in the French Alps. Butterflies from low‐elevation populations in southern France also took off much hotter than did the nearby Alpine population. 4. These results suggest that the influence of elevation is different from that of latitude in more respects than ambient temperature. Values of solar irradiance in the butterflies' flight season in each region show that insects from the coolest habitats, Finland and the Alps, experienced similar solar irradiance during basking, but that Finns experienced much lower irradiance in flight. This difference may have favored Finnish butterflies evolving higher takeoff temperatures than Alpine butterflies that also flew in cool air but benefited from more intense radiant energy after takeoff. 相似文献
