Figures 1-8 - Orthaltica species and their low cost leaf-hole shelters. 1 Leaf-hole shelter of Orthaltica terminalia on Terminalia paniculata. Note the feeding trenches radiating from the leaf-hole shelter 2 Feeding trenches of non-shelter forming species on an unidentified plant from the Combretaceae. Note the unoccupied leaf-hole nearby 3 Eumolpine beetle (Basilepta sp.) feeding holes on the abaxial side of the leaf of Syzygium caryophyllatum 4 Orthaltica syzygium occupying the leaf-hole made by the eumolpine beetle in Fig. 3 5 Leaf-hole shelter of Orthaltica in Fig. 3 as seen on the second day, viewed from adaxial side of leaf. Note the feeding trenches radiating from the leaf-hole 6 Triangular-shaped artificial leaf-holes on Syzygium travancoricum used as shelter by Orthaltica syzygium - note feeding trenches radiating from holes 7 Single occupancy - note the first partition 8 Multiple occupancy with multiple partitions.
