Insect grazing on Eucalyptus in response to variation in leaf tannins and nitrogen
SummaryMany species of Eucalyptus, one of the dominant genera in Australian forests and woodlands, contain high levels of tannins and other phenols and are also heavily damaged by grazing insects.… Expand

Factors Influencing Cannibalism, a Mechanism of Population Limitation in the Predator Notonecta hoffmanni
Factors influencing cannibalism rates in the freshwater insect predator Notonecta hoffmanni were analyzed in a series of field and laboratory experiments. Starvation was re- jected as a cause of… Expand
