Soehren year 2004 publisher Ulukau, the Hawaiian Electronic Library accessdate August 22, 2010 ref Unlike most other Lygaeidae lygaeids , which eat seed s, it has adapted to feed on insect s that are blown up to the top of the mountain and die. This is not as small a resource as it might seem snow packs at the summit are often covered with hundreds of them. When the snow melts, w kiu bugs can be found at the edge feeding on insects that drop out of the melting snow. They have an antifreeze in their blood that allows them to survive at low temperatures. Conservation The stability of w kiu bug populations has been a matter of controversy. Development of the summit area of Mauna Kea for telescopes has adversely affected the ecology of the area, including compaction of the loose cinder and spills of chemicals used in maintaining the telescopes. Although the bugs inhabit other cones that are not being built on, hiking and other human activity can have a serious impact on them. An early w kiu bug survey using lethal pitfall traps collected an unexpectedly large number of specimens, and was accused of depleting the population. Later surveys funded by telescope ow ... more details
