Abstract:Populations of the Colorado potato beetle exhibit by a high level of polymorphism, which enables them to have high ecological plasticity and quickly adapt to various conditions. Our research examines the variability of the pattern of the central part of the pronotum of the Colorado potato beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata in samples collected from two localities of the Middle Urals over several years. New variants of the pattern are described, which have not been previously observed in the European part of the … Show more
