Host plant choice and effect of temperature on feeding behaviour of Perzelia arda (Lepidoptera: Depressariidae), a leaf‐tying larva, on Nothofagaceae from the Andean Patagonian forest
Environmental temperature may cause changes in the physiology and feeding behaviour of herbivorous insects and, consequently, in the damage they can cause. In the Andean Patagonian forest, an eco-regiondominated by trees of the Nothofagaceae family, it is common to find the leaf-tying larvae Perzeli...

Environmental temperature may cause changes in the physiology and feeding behaviour of herbivorous insects and, consequently, in the damage they can cause. In the Andean Patagonian forest, an eco-regiondominated by trees of the Nothofagaceae family, it is common to find the leaf-tying larvae Perzelia arda consuming seeds and leaves of several species of Nothofagus genus. The pattern of damage caused by P. arda in theseforests varies from year to year and even within seasons. We hypothesise that this phenomenon may be relatedto an increase in the ambient temperature of this region. The purpose of this work was to determine the hostplant preferences of P. arda among four species of Nothofagus genus and to evaluate whether temperature influences the feeding behaviour of the larvae. We first evaluated the food preferences of P. arda by means of twochoice tests, using leaves of N. alpina, N. obliqua, N. antarctica and N. pumilio as stimuli.
