The control plantations were situated in the village of Zarębki, about 30km from Chmielów. The object of the study was the average body mass of female and male specimen of the insect after full spring beetle appearance in potato plantations as well as the average body female and male mass after pupation of the larvae of the first generation and emerging from the soil. After six and twelve days of starvation, the average female and male body mass was determined. After twelve days of starvation the incident of cannibalism was noticed among the beetles of the first zone polluted by sulphur compounds.}, type={Article}, title={Study of the impact of polluted agroecosystem by sulphur compounds on Colorado potato beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineala Say) and the occurrence of cannibalism among beetles of this species}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/131129/PDF-MASTER/14_PLANT_41_1_2001_Przybylski_Study.pdf}, keywords={agroecosystern, sulphur compounds, Colorado beetle, cannibalism}, }
