Insensitivity of midgut epithelium to ouabain was studied in three phytophyagous Lepidoptera: the tobacco hornworm.Manduca sexta, the Cecropia silkmoth.Hyalophora cecropia, and the Monarch butterfly,Danaus plexippus. The midgut failed to selectively bind ouabain in the presence of 8 mM K−. The presence of K+stimulated ouabain sensitive Na+K+-ATPases in midgut could not be confirmed. Neuronal tissues collected from the same species at the same stages in development bound ouabain readily, and possessed K+stimulated ouabain sensitive Na+K+-ATPases. It is proposed that alkali metal transport across the midgut epithelium of these phytophagous Lepidoptera occurs via energy-linked processes not requiring Na+K+-ATPases.
