The Natural History of Caterpillar-Ant Associationsthe enemy-free space created by ants. Obligate myrmecophiles that do not attract ants through stridulatory or chemical signaling are limited to habitats where ants are reliably present for other reasons, either among ant-attended hemipterans, on ant-plants, or around ant nests. Particularly in the t

Trophic Interactions of Caterpillars in the Seasonal Environment of the Brazilian Cerrado and Their insights on caterpillar interactions based on more than 25 years of studies conducted in this biome. Few caterpillar species and unique interactions are present throughout the year, as most species are restricted to one particular season, with high temporal turnover in species composition and trophi

On Being a Caterpillar: Structure, Function, Ecology, and Behaviorgoal of this introductory chapter is to provide information to ecologists and others about the structure, function, and life history of caterpillars: their basic external and internal anatomy, larval development, population biology and ecology as consumers and the consumed, and other salient attribu

Surface Warfare: Plant Structural Defenses Challenge Caterpillar Feedingerbivory in various caterpillar-host plant systems. We then use trichomes as a model to discuss the specificity and diversity of plant-herbivore interactions and to examine the counter defense strategies employed by caterpillars to thwart these defenses. Finally, we discuss current developments and
