摘要
细蛾科头细蛾属昆虫与大戟科算盘子属、叶下珠属和黑面神属植物互利共生关系的发现为研究昆虫与植物协同演化过程提供了一个全新的模式。目前,国内对头细蛾与大戟科植物的互利共生关系了解和研究都很少。本文介绍了头细蛾的分类、生物学和形态适应;大戟科相关5属植物(算盘子属、叶下珠属、黑面神属、白饭树属和守宫木属)的生物地理学,开花生物学,花的结构与传粉系统的关系;寄主植物与传粉者的对应关系;互利共生关系的维持机制等。研究表明中国有丰富的头细蛾与大戟科植物资源,开展其互利共生关系的研究有重要科学意义。很多新的、复杂的头细蛾与大戟科植物的生态关系和大量的头细蛾种类有待我们去发现和研究。
The obligate pollination mutualism between the Epicephala moths of the family Gracillariidae and the Glochidion,Phyllanthus and Breynia plants of the family Euphorbiaceae provides a novel model for studying the coevolutionary process between insects and plants. However,little knowledge about such mutualism is known and few study on it has been carried out in China. This paper reviews the classification,the biology and the morphological adaption of the Epicephala moths; the biogeography,the floral biology,and the relationship between the floral structure and the pollination system of the five genera plants （Glochidion,Phyllanthus,Breynia,Flueggea and Sauropus）; the corresponding relationships between the host plants and the pollinators; and the mechanisms to maintain such mutualism. Preliminary study indicates that the resources of the Euphorbiaceae plants and the Epicephala moths are rich in China,which makes it scientifically important to carry out such research. In fact,many novel and complicated ecological relationships as well as lots of new Epicephala species are awaiting to be discovered and studied in China.
