Patterns of leaf damage by herbivory in Ctenanthe lanceolata Petersen (Maranthaceae) in the Biological Reserve of Duas Bocas, Cariacica, Espírito Santo
Abstract
The current work is an analysis of patterns of leaf herbivory in species herbacea Ctenanthe lanceolata Petersen (Maranthaceae) situated in a trail of Atlantic Forest in the Biological Reserve of Duas Bocas (20 ° 16’S, 40 º 28’W), Cariacica, ES, Brazil. As demonstrated five types of herbivory patterns were observed: marginal cut, drilling, sequential, and scraping Following the Central Vein. No correlation was found between the classes described.
