Searching for a common host: parasitoids of Lema daturaphila on Datura stramonium in Central Mexico by Carol Estefanía Villanueva-Hernández, Juan Núñez-Farfán

“…As an apparent defense strategy against parasitoid flies, larvae of L. daturaphila release their oral secretions, which contain alkaloids from D. stramonium. At a geographic scale, these findings change the scenario between the plant-herbivore interaction and open the field to explore the different selective pressures among populations.…”
