Flycatcher birds that migrate from Africa to Europe feed their nestlings mostly with moth caterpillars. The data presented show the mean dates of egg laying, hatching, and fledging of flycatcher young, and the 1980 and 2000 peak mass of caterpillars.


The most likely cause for the shift in caterpillar peak mass is

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. Pesticide use.
  2. Earlier migration returns of flycatchers.
  3. An innate change of biological clock by caterpillars. 
  4. Global warming.
