homopteran การใช้

• Older larvae prey on a variety of homopterans and drink their honeydew excretions.
• Several species of such ants tend riodinid and lycaenid caterpillars, and also homopterans ( aphids, plant hoppers and relatives ).
• The majority of coccinellid species are generally considered useful insects, because many species prey on herbivorous homopterans such as aphids or scale insects, which are agricultural pests.
• This lemur is active throughout the year; unlike mouse lemurs ( " Microcebus " ), it does not hibernate, and instead it feeds on homopteran larvae to sustain itself.
• Both " Microcebus " species have an omnivorous diet, and used the same food sources, including sugary homopteran secretions, fruit, flowers, gum, arthropods and small vertebrates ( e . g . geckos, chameleons ).
• It is thought this relationship could have evolved by the snail first feeding on honeydew that collected on leaves beneath the feeding bug, and then following the trail up to find the bug feeding, a similar mechanism to that proposed to explain the formation of similar interactions between ants and homopterans.
