Abstract
Adaptive specialization in terms of survival due to diverse fungal feeding preferences and seasonal dispersal is indicated in the sporophagous species Loyolaia indica (Anan). Feeding behavioural patterns of six species of mycophagous Tubulifera reflect diversity in fungal resource utilization and feeding range. Influence of fungal food on the strategies of survival, reproduction and aggregation has been discussed.
