Is That So?
By IUGENI BURNS
Ranger-Naturalist
Now that insects are reap
pearing in greater numbers each
day, the question arises: how do
cold-blooded insects live through
the bitter winter months?
Some pass these months as
adults, some as larvae grubs or
caterpillars, some as pupae in
hardened shells, some as eggs,
while pot a few continue their
active existence regardless of
freezing temperatures.
To withstand the rigors of win
ter, some adults decrease their
body ' water and increase their
other chemical contents with
the result that they can be super
cooled and resist below-zera tem
peratures. A few migrate, notably the
monarch butterfly which may
make a 2,000-mile trip to warm
er climes. But with most, the
migration is confined to just a
short distance, perhaps only
from exposed tree tops to pro
tected habitats.
Most astonishing, some fragile-
seeming butterflies live the win
ter through in low shrubbery,
perhaps completely enveloped
as long as four months in snow
and ice.
Queen wasps hide under
leaves in the forest; female ants.
likewise, live through the win
ter and start new colonies the
following season. The potato bug
buries itself several inches un
derground.
Houseflies. like many other
insects, become exceedingly slug
gish at about "50 degrees and to
them a prolonged below -zero
temperature is usually fatal. As
a result, every fall, they die by
the millions and billions. Only
a tiny remnant pull through in
shetered areas under bark and
fallen leaves, although in warm
barns and attics they may re
main active the year 'round. Of
the small group of survivors,
curiously, the vast majority are
fertilized females.
Clothes moths remain in
warm buildings until spring;
cockroaches seek out dark base
ments. Many Bor. Into Ground
But many more insects sur
vive cold winter in the larva
and pupa stage. The methods are
diverse. A bot-fly larvae may be
found in the digestive tract of a
horse; the ox-warbler larvae feed
beneath the hide of cattle. The
army worm, tomato worm and
many others bore into the ground
in the fall and emerge in the
spring as adult flies, beetles or
moths. (The 17-year locusts, of
course, take 17 years to emerge.)
Other insects pass the entire
winter, in the "cocoon" chry
salis there are innumerable
kinds, some beautifully" marked
under the protective shaggy
bark of trees or in hollowed-out
chambers -in the frozen ground.
Another common way for in
sects is to pass the winter as
an egg. Among these, grassnop-
perg deposit their egg in packet
like masses an inch or more be
neath the ground. The tent cat
erpillar moth fastens its eggs
on twigs in fruit trees. Eggs
of plant lice are glued to various
plants. Gypsy moths hide their
eggs under stones, or under bark
or the sides of buildings.
Finally, some insects continue
to reproduce throughout the
year, even during January and
February. Among these are
many stone flies including cock
roaches, chicken lice, and sheep
ticks. And there is one cave
beetle which is so well-adjusted
to cold life that it lives its en
tire existence in ice grottoes
where the weather never warms
up beyond one degree above
freezing.
