In general Winner: Maternal Treatment by Javier Aznar González de Rueda

“In Ecuador’s largest safeguarded place, Yasuní National Park, I was ready to notice maternal care behaviour in the stink bug Antiteuchus tripterusover a two 7 days period of time. The woman bug guarded its clutch of eggs on a small department.

This behaviour has been reported for other legitimate bug species. To my shock, it turned out that the mother bug not only safeguarded the eggs but also the recently hatched larvae up to their initially moult. In Ecuador’s rainforest, the stink bug’s brood is susceptible to attack by several predators and parasitoids these as ichneumon wasps. Maternal treatment significantly will increase the offspring’s prospects of survival. The rainforest is ahighly complex ecosystem with many organisms in a large interconnected world-wide-web of existence.”
