小豆蔻碱(a.c ardamines, L.)的种群生物学在不同的地区有所不同。南部和西部种群比北部种群出现得更早,但西部和北部种群占据相似、更湿润的栖息地,主要与小豆蔻(Cardamine pratensis)相关。南方种群主要记录自Alliaria petiolata (Bieb.)。卵和幼虫的存活研究表明,寄主植物诱导的死亡和被速虫寄生是重要的致死因素。对1个种群的关键因子分析表明,种群大小的主要决定因素可能是产卵雌虫产卵的数量,而产卵雌虫产卵的数量又取决于产卵期的天气。不同地区的种群表现出相似的丰度趋势,证实了天气的影响。讨论了人类活动对其分布和丰度的影响,并提出了一些保护策略。
The population biology of A. cardamines (L.) is described and shown to vary with locality. Southern and western populations emerge earlier than northern ones, but western and northern populations occupy similar, wetter habitats and are associated primarily with Cardamine pratensis (L.). Southern populations are recorded mostly from Alliaria petiolata (Bieb.). Studies on egg and larval survival indicate that host plant-induced death and parasitization by a tachinid are important mortality factors. Key-factor anlaysis on 1 population indicates that the major determinant of population size may be the number of eggs laid by ovipositing females, itself dependent on weather during the oviposition period. Populations in different localities show similar trends in abundance, corroborating the effect of weather. Human effects on distribution and abundance are discussed, and some conservation strategies suggested.
