Behavioral responses of the yellow-spined bamboo locust, Ceracris kiangsu, towards solutions of ammonium bicarbonate and sodium chloride

Abstract: To better understand the mud-puddling behavior of Ceracris kiangsu (Orthoptera: Oedipodidae), the yellow-spined bamboo locust, an important bamboo pest in south China, the behavioral responses of female C. kiangsu adults to solutions of sodium chloride (1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 gL-1) and ammonium bicarbonate (1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 8.0, 10.0, 25.0, 50.0, 75.0, 150.0 gL-1) were studied using a video recording system for observing and recording the puddling behavior. Also, field trapping was conducted to test mud-puddling behavior to the solutions of sodium chloride and ammonium bicarbonate with different concentrations, respectively. Results showed that a 1.0 gL-1 sodium chloride or a 1.0 gL-1 ammonium bicarbonate concentration were sufficient to stimulate puddling behavior with female C. kiangsu adults. Also, adult visits to the sodium chloride and ammonium bicarbonate solutions increased significantly as the solution concentration increased (ANOVA, P<0.05). Female adults of C. kiangsu preferred visiting and feeding on filter paper treated with solutions of 75.0 gL-1 ammonium bicarbonate (ANOVA test, P=0.032) or 10.0 gL-1 sodium chloride (ANOVA, P=0.043). Much more female adults were trapped by ammonium bicarbonate solution than that trapped by sodium chloride solution (ANOVA, P<0.01), and field trapping indicated that volatiles played an important role in mud-puddling behavior of C. kiangsu.
