Natural history data for Nicrophorus orbicollis
<p>Burying beetles of the genus <em>Nicrophorus</em> have become a model for studying the evolution of complex parental care in a laboratory. <em>Nicrophorus</em> species depend on small vertebrate carcasses to breed, which they process and provision to their begging offspring. However, vertebrate carcasses are highly sought after by a wide variety of species and so competition is expected to be critical to the evolution of parental care. Despite this, the competitive environment for <em>Nicrophorus</em> is rarely characterized in the wild and remains a missing factor in laboratory studies. Here, we performed a systematic sampling of <em>Nicrophorus</em> <em>orbicollis</em> living near the southern extent of their range at Whitehall Forest in Clarke County, Georgia, USA. We determined the density of <em>N. orbicollis</em> and other necrophilous species that may affect the availability of this breeding resource through interference or exploitation competition. In addition, we characterize body size, a key trait involved in competitive ability, for all <em>Nicrophorus</em> species at Whitehall Forest throughout the season. Finally, we compare our findings to other published natural history data for Nicrophorines. We document a significantly longer active season than was observed twenty years previously at Whitehall Forest for both <em>N. orbicollis</em> and <em>Nicrophorus tomentosus</em>, potentially due to climate change. As expected, the adult body size of <em>N. orbicollis</em> was larger than <em>N. tomentosus</em>, the only other <em>Nicrophorus</em> species that was captured in 2022 at Whitehall Forest. The other most prevalent insects captured included species in the families Staphylinidae, Histeridae, Scarabaeidae, and Elateridae, which may act as competitors or predators of <em>Nicrophorus</em> young. Together, our results indicate significant variation in intra- and interspecific competition relative to populations within the <em>N. orbicollis</em> range. These findings suggest that the competitive environment shows extensive spatiotemporal variation, providing the basis to make predictions for how ecology may influence parenting in this species.</p>
