Abstract: Number of individuals and weight of Antispila treitschkella F.R. were determined in 1977-80. The number of individuals in the sample area ranged between 10.84-34.41 x 106/ha. The dry weight of animals varied between 1.66-4.65 kg/ha. Consumption expressed in dry weight was 17.62-153.80 kg/ha. In the area 8.9-79.2% of the leaves of Cornus mas shrubs was consumed. Among ecological capacities the respiration of the young larvae is very high, probably due to their mining habit.Journal: Folia entomologica hungaricaJournal abbreviation: Folia ent. hung.ISSN: 0373-9465Publisher: , Editor(s): Mahunka, S.
