Effects of space volume and light on four behavioral activities of Anoplophora glabripennis
In order to clarify the effect of space volume on mating,feeding,moving and rest-ing behavior of Anoplophora glabripennis adults,five containers(1 000 cm3,4 000 cm3,8 000 cm3,16 000 cm3,32 000 cm3)were used to test behavior responses of adults in five consecutive days.The research results showed that:(1)The frequency of mating behavior,feeding behavior,and moving behavior of male and female A.glabripennis beetles decreased with increasing volume;In different spatial volumes,except for no differences in resting ac-tivities between female and male adults,there were differences in mating,feeding,and mov-ing activities between female and male adults;(2)There were significant differences between male and female adults in the space of 1 000 cm3 feeding activities,4 000 cm3 moving activi-ties and 16 000 cm3 feeding activities;(3)When there was light,there were significant differences between the feeding activity and resting activity in the space of 1 000 cm3,and resting activity of 32 000 cm3;When there was no light,there were significant differences between the male and female adults of 4 000 cm3 moving and resting activity,8 000 cm3 mov-ing activity and 32 000 cm3 resting activity;(4)Spatial volume had an influence on the daily rhythm of different behavioral activities of A.glabripennis.To sum up,the behavior of A.glabripennis would be affected by the space volume size and light.
