Netherlands Journal of Zoology 23 (4): 430-445 (1973) EXPERIMENTS ON DISPERSAL, LATE-LARVAL PREDATION, AND PUPATION IN THE CINNABAR MOTH (TYRIA JACOBAEAE L.) WITH A RADIOACTIVE LABEL (192Ir) by E. VAN DER MEIJDEN (Zoological Laboratory, University of Leiden, The Netherlands) I. INTRODUCTION In a description of the vegetation of the dunes of Wassenaar (The Netherlands), BOERBOOM (1960) mentions Senecio jacobaea L. as occur- ring in about half of the 32 plant communities distinguished by him. Apparently the plant does not require a very specialized substratum. HARPER & WooD (1957) mention the plant from "soils derived from many different parent materials and especially on disturbed soils. Absent where the water table is high... Abundant on light disturbed calcareous soils." WATT (1940) did not find Ragwort on soils with a pH lower than 3.95. BoERSOONI (1960) calls it a species of the dry dune grasslands. However, a very low humidity may be a factor which limits its distribution since seedlings perish in large numbers in situations of drought (POOLE & CAIRNS, 1940; VAN DER MEIJDEN, 1971). The distribution of Tyria jacobaeae is not as wide as that of the food- plant ofits larvae. DEMPSTER ( 1971 ) did not find it
