摘要：

ABSTRACT. Adults and nymphs of two species of milkweed bugs, Oncopeltus fasciatus and Lygaeus kalmii, were studied with respect to their optomotor responses, as exhibited by the laboratory phenomenon of correcting behaviour on mazes. It was found that the O.fasciatus nymphs failed to correct while the other three groups all exhibited correcting behaviour. The differences in correcting behaviour were attributed to differences in such ecological variables as degree of socialness, nature of food source, and foraging strategies.
