| dc.description.abstract | carablds iti northwestern ontario were found to follow one or another of three basic annual population curves reflecting both activity and actual population levels. additional research is needed to ascertain whether or not other carabld species follow those three
phenology patterns.
the carabld species scaphinotus bilobus say , sphaeroderus
nitidicollis chevrolat, pterostichus coracinus newman and agonum
decentis say were found to be primary associates of the mites
(hypopi) acotyledon, sancassania, kuzinia and schwiebea, those mites
and poecilochirus deutonymphs were common associates of the carabids
studied. other mites were infrequently associated with the carabids. the mites did not appear to associate selectively with either sex of
carabid, particular species of carabid or particular sites on the
carabids. the mites were found most commonly on ventral surfaces and
rarely under elytra, and did not appear to be associated with the
carabid eggs, pupae or overwintering adults. the mites appeared to be
phoretlc on the carabids, using them as a means of transport to environments more suitable to further development. | |
