食性 Diet

一半的細蠹以真菌(如菌絲或孢子)為食,其他則以花朵或綠葉為食,極少數會以小型節肢動物為食。

Half of the population feed only on fungi like hyphae or spores. Others feed on flowers or green leaves, and very few of them feed on small arthropods


小知識 Fun Fact

薊馬不經歷變態,僅有三個明顯的發育階段:卵、若蟲和成蟲。許多細蠹物種展現出複雜的行為模式,包括打鬥、社會性(某些個體降低自身的繁殖潛力來抚養他人的後代)和聚集繁殖展示(在繁殖場上的集體展示)。

They don’t undergo metamorphosis. They only have three distinct developmental stages: the egg, nymph, and adult stages. Many thrips species exhibit complex behavioral patterns including fighting, sociality (in which some individuals reduce their own lifetime reproductive potential to raise the offspring of others), and lekking (a communal breeding display on a lek).
