Background and Aims: The most widespread form of protective mutualisms is represented by plants bearing extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) that attract ants and other arthropods for indirect defence. Another, but less common, ...
LUIGI PROVASOLI AWARD RECIPIENTS
(WILEY, 2009)
As part of a long-term study on the biology and ecology of the intertidal kelp Lessonia nigrescens Bory, we report on the occurrence of gall development on this alga, identified the possible causal agent, and assessed the ...
Galling Insects of the Brazilian Páramos: Species Richness and Composition Along High-Altitude Grasslands
(2017-12-01)
In this work, we investigated the factors that determine the distribution of galling insects in high-altitude grasslands, locally called campos de altitude' of Mantiqueira Range and tested whether 1) richness of galling ...
Galls (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) and host occurrence in Sierra Fría, Aguascalientes, Mexico.
(Universidad del ValleColombia, 2017-12-30)
Galls are formed in the tissues of plants by specific Cynipid gall wasps, and show a high specificity for oaks in temperate climates and represented an indirect method to evaluate its abundance and distribution. This study ...
