Sodium: stimulus for puddling behavior by tiger swallowtail butterflies, Papilio glaucus.

K Arms, P Feeny, R C Lederhouse.   

Abstract

Male Papilio glaucus butterflies are attracted to sand soaked with dillute aqueous solutions of sodium salts. A sodium ion concentration of 10(-3) molar is sufficient to stimulate puddling behavior. Acqlisition of sodiumn mnay be the main ecological function of pudding behavior.
