Abstract
SYNOPSIS: An account is given of the formation of aggregations on cotton seeds by Dysdercus intermedius. The part played by visual and olfactory stimuli in the formation of these aggregations is discussed, and a possible mechanism for the formation of feeding aggregations by adults in the field is suggested.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
