• Back from the dead: a fungus gnat pollinator turns Arisaema lethal trap into nursery

  Kenji Suetsugu, Hiroki Nishigaki, Satoshi Kakishima, Masahiro Sueyoshi, Shinji Sugiura

  Societal Impact Statement The research explores the complex interaction between flowering plants and their pollinators, specifically focusing on the genus Arisaema. Unlike most plants, Arisaema has a distinctive trait in which killing pollinators can be beneficial. Traditionally, this interaction has been viewed as highly antagonistic because it appears to favor the plants at the expense of the pollinators. However, new evidence reveals that a pollinator uses the lethal floral trap of Arisaema thunbergii as a nursery. Remarkably, some individuals probably even escape from the trap after laying eggs. This finding challenges the prevailing notion that deceptive pollination is the sole outcome in Arisaema, a genus known for its intricate lethal pollination mechanisms. Summary While many flowering plants engage in mutualistic relationships with their pollinators, flower‐insect interactions are not always mutually beneficial. Some plants exploit their pollinators by deceptively promising rewards without delivering them. Among such plants, the genus Arisaema (Araceae) is notable for its antagonistic behavior towards pollinators, as female plants invariably entrap them with lethal effects. Here we tested the hypothesis that the succulent appendix of some Arisaema species, such as Arisaemathunbergii, may serve as a food source for pollinator larvae, leading to the possibility of nursery pollination. To investigate this, we retrieved adult insect corpses trapped within the spathes of A. thunbergii. Subsequently, we incubated the spathes after collecting the corpses to determine if conspecific insects emerged from them. We present novel evidence that one of the main pollinating fungus gnats, Leia ishitanii, uses the lethal floral trap of A. thunbergii inflorescences as a nursery. Astonishingly, some L. ishitanii individuals may even succeed in escaping from the female spathe after depositing their eggs. These findings challenge the conventional understanding that deceptive pollination is the norm within the genus Arisaema. The interaction between A. thunbergii and L. ishitanii, in which a significant portion of female adults die inside but still reproduction seems successful, suggests an intermediate stage between brood‐site deception and nursery pollination mutualism.

• Active behaviour of terrestrial caterpillars on the water surface

  Masakazu Hayashi, Shinji Sugiura

  Most butterfly and moth larvae (Lepidoptera) are terrestrial. When terrestrial caterpillars accidentally fall into water, they may drown or be preyed upon by aquatic predators before they can safely reach land. However, how terrestrial caterpillars escape aquatic environments and predators remains unclear. In July 2018, we observed a terrestrial caterpillar actively moving forward on the surface of a pond in Japan until it successfully reached the shore. To further investigate this behaviour in terrestrial caterpillars, we experimentally placed larvae of 13 moth species (four families) on a water surface under laboratory and field conditions. All caterpillars floated. Larvae of seven species moved forward on the water surface, whereas those of six species did not. A total of two types of behaviour were observed; in Dinumma deponens, Hypopyra vespertilio, Spirama retorta, Laelia coenosa, Lymantria dispar (all Erebidae), and Naranga aenescens (Noctuidae), larvae swung their bodies rapidly from side to side to propel themselves along the water surface (i.e., undulatory behaviour); in contrast, larvae of Acosmetia biguttula (Noctuidae) rapidly moved the abdomen (posterior segments) up and down for propulsion along the water surface (i.e., flick behaviour). Although thoracic legs were not used for undulatory and flick behaviour, rapid movements of the abdomen were used to propel caterpillars on the water surface. We also observed that undulatory and flick behaviour on the water surface aided caterpillars in escaping aquatic predators under field conditions. In addition, we investigated the relationship between body size and undulatory behaviour on the water surface in the erebid S. retorta under laboratory conditions. The frequency and speed of forward movement on the water surface increased with body length. Together, these results show that the rapid movement of elongated bodies results in forward propulsion on the water surface, allowing some terrestrial caterpillars to avoid drowning or aquatic predators. We further suggested potential factors related to morphology, host plant habitat, and defensive behaviour that may have led to the acquisition of aquatic behaviour in terrestrial caterpillars.

• Shell-breaking predation on gastropods by Badister pictus (Coleoptera, Carabidae) with strikingly asymmetric mandibles

  Masakazu Hayashi, Shinji Sugiura

  The adults and larvae of some groups in the coleopteran family Carabidae are known to prey on snails (Mollusca: Gastropoda). Most species of the carabid tribe Licinini are believed to feed on live snails. However, the snail-eating behavior of only a few species has been studied. Whether adults of the licinine genus Badister can prey on live snails was tested by providing 155 live snails of 20 species (eleven terrestrial and nine aquatic species) to adults of Badister pictus Bates, 1873, and observing their behavior under laboratory conditions. Six of the 20 snail species have an operculum that can close the aperture of the shell. Each B. pictus adult attacked all of the snails provided. Badister pictus successfully preyed on ten terrestrial and six aquatic snail species. These beetles used their strikingly asymmetrical mandibles to break the dextral shells along the dorsal part of the whorls from the outer lip of the aperture towards the apex, allowing subsequent consumption of the soft bodies. However, 41.9% of snails could not be eaten by B. pictus adults. The rate of predation success by B. pictus decreased with increasing shell size and thickness of snails. In addition, the presence of an operculum decreased the rate of predation success by B. pictus. The results show that the shell size, thickness, and operculum of some snail species could play important roles in preventing B. pictus mandibles from breaking the shells. Therefore, Badister beetles may exert selective pressure on the evolution of defensive shell structures in small-sized snails.

• Effects of host plant growth form on dropping behaviour in leaf beetles

  Satoru Matsubara, Shinji Sugiura

  Many leaf-eating insects drop from their host plants to escape predators. However, they must return to the leaves of the host plant after dropping, which represents a cost associated with this behaviour. In woody plants, the positioning of leaves is generally higher than that of herbaceous plants, which suggests that dropping from woody plants might be costlier for leaf-eating insects than dropping from herbaceous plants. Therefore, we predicted that dropping behaviour would be observed less frequently in insects that feed on woody plant leaves than in those that feed on herbaceous plant leaves. To test this prediction, we investigated dropping behaviour experimentally in larvae (23 species) and adults (112 species) of leaf beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) on their host plants (86 species of 44 families) in field conditions. Larvae on woody plants exhibited dropping behaviour less frequently than those on herbaceous plants. However, this pattern was not detected in adults. Thus, host plant growth form might affect the evolution of dropping behaviour in leaf beetle larvae, but not in winged adults, perhaps owing to their higher mobility.

• Climbing rice plants above the waterline: escape of freshwater snails from underwater predation by snail-eating specialists

  Masakazu Hayashi, Shinji Sugiura

  Freshwater molluscs have physical defences such as shells to protect their inner soft bodies from underwater predators. However, some predators have specialized mouthparts that can destroy the snail’s tough and/or spiral shells. Therefore, these snails could have evolved specific defences against their specialist predators. We observed the freshwater snail Austropeplea ollula (Pulmonata: Lymnaeidae) frequently climbing rice plants above the water in paddy fields in Shimane, central Japan. We also found the beetle larvae of Hydrophilus acuminatus (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae), which are known as snail-eating specialists, in waters of the same paddy fields. We hypothesized that A. ollula climbs rice plants above the water to escape underwater predation by H. acuminatus and that the escape behaviour of snails may be specifically triggered by chemical cues from snail-eating specialists and/or killed conspecifics. To test both these hypotheses, we conducted laboratory experiments. The results demonstrated that chemical cues (e.g. body fluids) from killed conspecifics could trigger A. ollula to crawl above the waterline. Furthermore, chemical cues (e.g. scent and digestive enzymes) from H. acuminatus could promote the behaviour. Therefore, A. ollula can successfully escape from H. acuminatus by climbing the rice plants above the water.

• Can Hawaiian carnivorous caterpillars attack invasive ants or vice versa?

  Shinji Sugiura

  Abstract The Hawaiian Islands have allowed insects to evolve unique habits, because the islands are isolated and originally lacked predators, such as ants and wasps. Ambush carnivorous caterpillars (Eupithecia spp.; Lepidoptera: Geometridae) provide a remarkable example of a feeding behaviour unique to the Hawaiian Islands. Their prey includes various arthropods species. Eupithecia larvae even attack predatory arthropods such as parasitoids. However, it is unclear whether Eupithecia can attack ants. Here, I examined whether Eupithecia orichloris can attack the invasive ant Pheidole megacephala under laboratory conditions. Eupithecia orichloris could successfully attack the minor worker of P. megacephala. However, the major worker of P. megacephala counterattacked.

  本年度は、(1)チョウ目幼虫に似た虫えいによる視覚的防衛の検証、(2)植物の寄生擬態候補の探索、(3)その他を行った。 (1)虫えいを誘導する昆虫には、寄主植物に円筒形でチョウ目幼虫のように見える虫えい（ミザクラハベリフクロフシ、トサカフシなど）を形成させる種がある。これが視覚的に幼虫のように見せることにより、他の植食性昆虫による虫えいやその周辺部位への食害を防ぐ効果があるのではないかという仮説を考えた。これを検証するために、緑地で春季にサクラの枝に、幼虫の形にした粘土（ダミー幼虫）を1つずつ配置した。また、粘土を配置しないコントロールも設定した。7日後に植食を評価したが、ダミー幼虫により植食が減少する傾向は認められなかった。虫えいは大量に集中的に形成される場合が多いので、今後はダミー幼虫の密度を増やした実験が必要である。 (2)近畿地方と山梨県で、植物の部位が昆虫に利用されているように見せかける擬態の候補を調査した。芽の柔毛による菌感染擬態や茎にカイガラムシ、アブラムシなどが寄生しているように見える植物があり、それらは寄生擬態の候補と考えられた。すでに利用、寄生されている植物は、誘導防衛が発達していたり、天敵が誘引されていたり、食物の質・量が低下するからである。この他、葉の形が有毒植物に似る植物が観察され、植物において広く視覚的な防御が存在する可能性が示唆された。 (3)この他、野外調査の副産物として、本来、クモバチ媒であるパインップルリリーにモリチャバネゴキブリが訪花して送粉することを記録した。
