中国的养蚕业部分依赖于中国栎蚕蛾的饲养，这种昆虫在文化和生态方面具有重要作用。虽然主要以橡树为食，但已知Antheraea物种接受替代宿主，如桦树Betula sp，几乎没有明显的负面适应性后果。这开辟了一系列宿主植物，可用于大规模饲养柞蚕丝生产和食物，或用于该物种可能的入侵。然而，到目前为止，A. pernyi的自然历史和生态学仍然是调查的主题。例如，我们仍然不知道个体如何应对拥挤的发育环境，这是物种生态学和商业饲养的一个重要因素。在这里，我描述了幼虫拥挤的影响，在早期发展的A. pernyi幼虫的生存和生长。我发现，更高的拥挤与更强的负面影响的增长和生存，从其他holometabolous昆虫的研究结果相佐证。然后，我讨论了这一发现的影响，我们的理解最佳幼虫拥挤。总的来说，研究结果揭示了重要的生态信息的昆虫物种的关键供应和文化生态系统服务。获取基质中幼虫数量的数据是一项不光彩且令人惊讶的困难任务。然而，这些信息是良好的生态研究的关键，也是昆虫养殖场产量最大化的关键。在这里，我描述了蚕对不同拥挤水平的半自然反应，并提出了一个框架，可以帮助该领域从实验室实验中推断幼虫拥挤的自然范围。
Chinese sericulture relies in part on the rearing of the Chinese oak silkmoth Antheraea pernyi, an insect with key cultural and ecological roles. While feeding primarily on oak, Antheraea species are known to accept alternative hosts such as birch Betula sp with little to no apparent negative fitness consequences. This opens up the range of hostplants that could be used for large‐scale rearing of A. pernyi for silk production and food, or used by this species in possible invasions. To date, however, the natural history and ecology of A. pernyi remain subject of investigation. For instance, we still do not know how individuals respond to crowding developmental environments, which is an important factor to consider for the ecology of the species as well as for commercial rearing. Here, I describe the implications of larval crowding to the survival and growth of A. pernyi larvae during early development. I show that higher crowding is associated with stronger negative effects on growth and survival, corroborating findings from other holometabolous insects. I then discuss the implications of this findings for our understanding of optimum larval crowding. Overall, the findings reveal important ecological information for an insect species key for provisioning and cultural ecosystem services. Getting data for the number of larvae in a substrate is an inglorious and surprisingly difficult task. Yet, this information is key for good ecological research and also, for maximising yield in insect growth farms. Here, I described semi‐natural responses of a silkworm to varying crowding levels, and propose a framework which can help the field infer natural range of larval crowding from laboratory experiments.
