Thermal dependence of trap building in predatory antlion larvae (Neuroptera : Myrmeleontidae)

Trap-building predators remain under strong selection from thermal microenvironments. To address how soil temperature and body size affect trap building, we conducted a laboratory experiment using larvae of the antlion Myrmeleon bore at six ecologically relevant temperatures. Larger larvae built lar...
