An observation device for social insect breeding in imitation ecosystem

Abstract

The invention discloses an observation device for imitating ecological system social insect breeding, which belongs to the technical field of artificial breeding of social insects. Temperature and humidity device, feeding device and calming device; the breeding area is located on the right side of the glass box and connected with the glass box; the living area is located inside the glass box; the ventilation device is located on the left and right sides of the glass box; the lighting device Located on the upper part and right outside of the glass box; the observation device is located outside the glass box, facing the living area; the temperature and humidity control device is located on the upper part of the glass box, behind the inside and on the left outside; the feeding device is located inside the glass box and left exterior; the calming device is located on the front of the glass case. The device can breed a certain number of social insects under laboratory conditions, simulate their living environment, observe and record the behavioral characteristics of the social insects, and is convenient for experimental research.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of artificial breeding of social insects, and in particular relates to an observation device for breeding social insects imitating an ecosystem. Background technique [0002] Among the insects living in groups, those with significant coordination and internal differentiation of the group are called social insects, such as termites, ants, wasps and some flower bees, etc. The biggest characteristic of their behavior is the relationship between members. The division of labor is established according to hierarchical differentiation, and it is difficult for individual members to survive without the group. Many behavioral characteristics of social insects, such as foraging and flying, have become research hotspots in biology-related disciplines. At present, there is no device on the market that can combine the breeding and observation of social insects, which has caused certain obstacles for researchers to observ...
