Host plant choice in Melinaea: female preference & larval performance

Data for both female preference and larval performance of different species of Melinaea on two different host plants (Juanulloa parasitica & Trianaea speciosa), including the number of eggs laid in choice and no choice experiments, survival, duration of larval development and pupal weight.

本数据集涵盖美蝶属（Melinaea）不同物种在两种寄主植物——寄生黄曼陀罗（Juanulloa parasitica）与壮丽三蕊藤（Trianaea speciosa）上的雌虫产卵偏好及幼虫生长表现相关数据，具体包含选择试验与非选择试验中的产卵量、幼虫存活率、幼虫发育历期及蛹重。
