1991年5月1日 · Trophic relations of 95 insect-dominated food webs from seven habitat categories are examined and discussed in relation to current ecological theory. We identify 13 salient …

Insects can be classified as herbivores, carnivores or detritivores. Figure 8.16: A butterfly larvae feeding on a leaf. Herbivorous insects eat plants. The plants can include large, vascular plants …

Trophic relations of 95 insect-dominated food webs from seven habitat categories are examined and discussed in relation to current ecological theory. We identify 13 salient patterns, of which …

Using the obligate and facultative symbionts of aphids as an example, we find that there are multiple ways that symbiont presence might affect food web structure. Many symbionts are …
