BIOLOGY AND PHYLOGENY OF THE CASSIDINAE GYLLENHAL SENSU LATO (TORTOISE AND LEAF-MINING BEETLES) (COLEOPTERA: CHRYSOMELIDAE)
- C. Chaboo
- Biology
- 2007
Abstract A parsimony analysis was undertaken to test subfamily and tribal group concepts of Cassidinae (ca. 2000 genera, ca. 6000 species). An integrated account of their biology was synthesized from… Expand
Origins and diversification of subsociality in leaf beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae: Chrysomelinae)

- Biology
- 26 August 2014
Leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae; ~40,000 species) are commonly solitary animals but subsociality, maternal care of broods, is known in Cassidinae and Chrysomelinae. We report 11 novel records from Brazil… Expand

Three New Reports of Subsocial Tortoise Beetles from South America (Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae)
- M. V. Macedo, V. Flinte, André Abejanella, C. Chaboo
- Biology
- 1 November 2015
ABSTRACT
Subsociality is known in 35 species in 10 genera of the chrysomelid subfamilies Cassidinae and Chrysomelinae. In Cassidinae, the behavior is clustered in two tribes, Eugenysini and… Expand
Beetles (Coleoptera) of Peru: A Survey of the Families. Chrysomelidae: Alticinae (Flea Beetles)
Diversity in Peru: 84 genera, 370 species. Classification: Flea beetles (Alticinae in this work) are regarded by some as a tribe of Galerucinae (Alticini) based on lack of larval differences and some… Expand
Defensive Behaviors in Leaf Beetles: From the Unusual to the Weird
- C. Chaboo
- Biology
- 2011
Chrysomelid leaf beetles are a geologically ancient group of primarily herbivorous insects. As herbivores, they are important ecologically, in food chains, and economically, as pests or as… Expand

- C. Chaboo, M. Engel, M. L. Chamorro-Lacayo
- Biology, Medicine
- Naturwissenschaften
- 23 June 2009
Complex ethological adaptations and intraspecific interactions leave few fossil traces. We document three Dominican (20 million years old [myo]) and Baltic (45 myo) amber fossils that exhibit firm… Expand
