研究成果の概要（英文）： Some lepidopteran larvae have long frontal projections, but their role is almost unknown. In this study, we made a "defense-from-natural-enemies" hypothesis about the role of hard projections, and tested the hypothesis using Polyura eudamippus larvae. When the larvae whose projections were artificially removed and the untreated larvae with their own projections were attacked the natural enemy paper wasps, the larvae with the projections had a significantly higher defense rate than the larvae without the projections. Therefore, the hypothesis was partially supported. On the other hand, we made a "assisting-host-plant-search" hypothesis about the role of soft projections and tested the hypothesis using Parantica sita larvae. As a result, the larvae with projections found host-plants at a significantly higher rate than the larvae without projections. Therefore, the hypothesis was proved., 研究種目：基盤研究(C); 研究期間：2019～2021; 課題番号：19K06079; 研究分野：昆虫生態学; 科研費の分化・細目：, application/pdf},
