Abstract

Pupation site selection behavior of Plodia interpunctella (H$\ddot{u}$bner) in response to its larval parasitoid, Bracon hebetor Say, was evaluated. Under the presence of the parasitoid, more moth larvae pupated in a layer deeper than 5 mm. Because the parasitoid searched for the host mostly in the surface layer (< 5 mm), larvae in deeper layers were able to successfully escape attack by the parasitoid. However, this behavior did not affect the numerical response of the parasitoid. The parasitoid laid more eggs per host larvae when the number of attacked larvae decreased.

화랑곡나방 유충이 자유롭게 수직적 분포를 하도록 허용된 아크릴 실린더(지름 150 mm, 높이 85 mm, 현미 660 g 포함)에서 보리살이나 방고치벌 공격에 대응하는 화랑곡나방 유충의 행동반응을 용화장소 선택행동을 중심으로 평가하였다. 보리나방살이고치벌이 없을 때는 화랑곡 나방 유충의 용화가 표층(< 5 mm)에서 이루어졌으나 보리나방살이고치벌이 존재하는 경우 유충은 더 깊은 층에서 용화하였다. 보리나방살이고 치벌의 기주 탐색은 주로 표층에서(< 5 mm) 이루어 졌으며, 따라서 화랑곡나방 유충은 표층보다 깊은 층에서 용화함으로써 공격을 피할 수 있었다. 유충의 용화 장소 선택은 기생자의 공격에 대한 효과적인 방어 행동으로 판단되었다. 이러한 유충의 방어 행동은 보리나방살이고치벌의 수반응에는 영향을 미치지 않았는데, 이는 알려진 바대로 보리나방살이고치벌이 기주 유충 당 산란 수를 피공격 유충 수에 따라 조절하기 때문이라고 생각된다. 본 실험에서도 공격된 화랑곡나방 유충 수가 감소하면서 기주 유충 당 고치벌의 산란 수는 증가하였다.
