Keywords:

  • behavior
  • host
  • life cycle
  • phenology
  • reproduction
  • Notes: Through systematic field investigations conducted over two consecutive years, this study aimed to precisely characterize the phenology of D. corpulenta in arid urban environments, evaluate differences in population dynamics across seven major host plant species, and elucidate the soil colonization behavior of adult females, as well as the vertical and horizontal spatial distribution patterns of their overwintering eggs. https://doi.org/10.3390/insects17010127
