Abstract

Phytophagous insects may select plants or plant parts not only based upon nutritional content, but also on the intensity of predation and parasitism. This observation leads to the enemy free space hypothesis, which suggests that herbivores select host plants for which the mortality from natural enemies is minimized, by preferring host plants on which the herbivores would be less vulnerable to their natural enemies. In Tunisia, Orgyia trigotephras is a polyphagous moth, bivoltine with a spring (SG) and an autumnal (AG) generation. This work was carried out in two sites: Jebel Abderrahmane (Ftahiz, Delhiza and Guitoun) and Bizerte (Sejnane). The aim is to compare the importance of predation by moth larvae (Coccidiphila rungsella) and parasitism by egg parasitoids (Aprostocetus sp.) on O. trigotephras on two host species, Quercus coccifera and Pistacia lentiscus.

Abstract

Bitki ile beslenen böcekler, sadece besin içeriğine göre değil aynı zamanda avcılık ve parazitlik yoğunluğuna göre bitkileri veya bitkilerin belirli kısımlarını seçebilir. Bu gözlem sonucunda, düşmansız alan hipotezi ortaya atılmıştır. Bu hipoteze göre, otoburlar doğal düşmanlarına karşı daha az savunmasız olabilecekleri konukçu bitkileri tercih ederek doğal düşmanlardan kaynaklanan ölümlerin en az düzeyde olacağı bitkileri seçmektedir. Tunus’ta Orgyia trigotephras, ilkbahar nesli (İN) ve sonbahar nesli (SN) ile bivoltin ve polifag bir böcek türüdür. Bu çalışma, iki bölgede gerçekleştirilmiştir: Jebel Abderrahmane (Ftahiz, Delhiza ve Guitoun) ve Bizerte (Sejnane). Bu çalışmanın amacı, Tunus’ta her neslin Quercus coccifera ve Pistacia lentiscus üzerinde böceğin larvalarının (Coccidiphila rungsella) avcılık düzeyi ve O. trigotephras yumurta parzitoidlerinin (Aprostocetus sp.) parazitlik düzeyinin önemini karşılaştırmaktır.
