Variation in elytral color with Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) for different sites and altitudes in Yunnan Province

    Corresponding author: OU Xiao-hong

Abstract: Adult individuals of Coccinellidae show variation in elytral color patterns,including Harmonia axyridis (Pallas). In order to determine the role of site and altitude in the elytral color polymorphism,specimens were collected using routing design method in Shangri-La(1 800 m),Dongchuan(770 - 2 600 m),Yuanjiang(625 - 2 160 m),and Kunming(1 900 m) of Yunnan Province from May 2006 to March 2007,and variation in elytral color of H. axyridis was studied. Results showed that after elytra color was divided into black and yellow series with 43 variance patterns,most H. axyridis were in the yellow series. In Shangri-La,Dongchuan,and Kunming the black series totaled less than the yellow,but the black series dominated in Yuanjiang. In the middle altitude belt(1 200 - 2 000 m) the splash variance of H. axyridis was greatest. The elytra color variance of H. axyridis is an active adaptation to the environment.
