In the lab, at least a third of hornworms become so addicted to the compound, indioside D, that they starve rather than switch to food without it, reports Marta del Campo, now of Binghamton University in New York. In humorous and historic detail, Despicable Species: On Cowbirds, Kudzu, Hornworms, and Other Scourges (The Lyons Press, $25) reveals surprises about all these deplorable creatures. Banded woolly bears, bagworms, green grapplers, tent caterpillars, hickory horned devils, and tomato hornworms are among the baker's dozen of caterpillars featured in this informative picture book. |
