Abstract

The species and visiting behavior of flower-visiting insects on Buddleja davidii were investigated during flowering period in Yunnan Agricultural University. There were 63 species of flowering-visiting insects on B. davidii, belonging to Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenopter, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Dermaptera and Mantodea. The main flower-visiting insect on Buddleja davidii was syrphid flies. The species of flower-visiting insects was differed among different month. The species and quantity of flower-visiting insect was effected by temperature changing. The flower-visiting frequency of flower-visiting insects to B. davidii was different, with the highest flower-visiting frequency from 12:00 to 16:00 everyday.
