The role of chemotactile stimuli in the oviposition preferences of Colias butterflies

It is stressed that chemotactile cues are involved only in the final step of oviposition, and that understanding foodplant choice in nature will require in-depth investigation into the mechanics of individual search processes.

Optimal foraging in bumblebees: rule of movement between flowers within inflorescences

It is hypothesized that nectar-collecting bumblebees will be found to forage in ways that maximize their net rate of energy intake, and the manner in which they move from one flower to another within inflorescence is focused on.
