Mud-puddling aggregation behaviour in Pieris napi (Linnaeus,
1758) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae): does polyandry and large
spermatophore mass transfer lead to increased investment in
mud-puddling?
Entomologist’s Gazette, 65.
87-95.
Abstract
Mud-puddling aggregations of Pieris napi have been recorded more frequently than of other
butterfly species in the U.K. Attention is focused on the factors, such as spermatophore mass
and polyandry, likely to induce mud-puddling in this species particularly. Distinctive spatial
patterns in mud-puddling aggregation behaviour are highlighted as a potentially valuable topic
for future research.
