An altitudinal comparison of caterpillar (Lepidoptera) assemblages on Ficus trees in Papua New Guinea

Original language description

Ficus-feeding Lepidoptera assemblages between tropical lowlands and highlands are characterized by substantial species turnover not explained by altitudinal changes in the composition of the vegetation. Further, species-rich plant genera can support caterpillar assemblages with relatively low beta-diversity compared with species-poor genera as caterpillars can switch their host preferences from one congeneric host species to another along an altitudinal gradient. Closely related plant species can thus represent a broad, continuously distributed resource along such gradients.

Czech name

Srovnání společenstev housenek (Lepidoptera) na fíkovnících (Ficus) podél výškového gradientu na Papui-Nové Guinei

Czech description

Velké rozdíly ve složení společenstev housenek zjištěné mezi nížinnými a horskými lesy na Nové Guineji nejsou způsobeny změnami ve složení vegetace, neboť i společenstva housenek na jednom druhu stromu se výrazně mění podél výškového gradientu.
