Research Abstract |
In general, predator density increase and decrease occurs depends on prey density, and its predator population dynamics with delay. However, An outbreak of a beech caterpillar (Syntypistis punctatella : univoltine) occurs once a about 10 years in Hakkoda Mountains, Aomori Prefecture and the Predator Carabid beetle (Calosoma maximowiczi : univoltine) population dynamics changes with no delay. Results of this study, without delay because the survival rate of wintering after outbreak in the carabid beetle is only 4.5 percent, and because we would be considered too dispersed individuals survived the winter period, the revealed.
