- 論文の詳細を見る
Foraging of Polistes chinensis antennalis workers was studied through experiments in a field cage (3.6m×3.6m). Prey (grasshopper larvae) was artificially distributed either uniformly or contagiously. The number of foraging workers was not affected by the type of prey distribution. The prey-capture rate of the colony as a whole was constant with uniform prey distribution, while with contagious distribution the rate decreased with the residual number of prey. The degree of correlation of spatial distribution of foraging workers with that of remaining prey was positive and similar for the two distribution types of prey. The time allocation to foraging of individual workers was larger with uniform prey distribution than with contagious prey distribution when the number of remaining prey was small.
