摘要： Predaceous diving beetles (dytiscids) are important top insect predators in various natural, agricultural, and artificial water bodies. How they respond to human disturbances such as insecticide contamination to their habitats has been understudied. In this study, we investigated the lethal effects of lambda-cyhalothrin, chlorantraniliprole, and thiamethoxam at nominal field concentrations in 3 cm-deep water in a hypothetical paddy field (Ci,3) on adult Dytiscus sinensis Feng (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae). Lambda-cyhalothrin exhibited significant lethal effects on D. sinensis adults with its Ci,3 exceeding the 95 % confidence interval lower limits for 24, 48, 72, and 96 h-LC99. Chlorantraniliprole and thiamethoxam showed no significant lethal effects on D. sinensis adults at their respective Ci,3 at 24, 48, or 72 h. Additionally, we assessed the temporal propensity of D. sinensis adults to exit water contaminated with chlorantraniliprole and thiamethoxam, respectively. There were significantly more individuals that temporally exited the chlorantraniliprole-contaminated water than clean water 30 min after placing a tile island in the test arena. Meanwhile, thiamethoxam-contaminated water did not repel significantly more individuals than clean water when observed at 10, 30, or 60 min. The study highlights the availability and importance of selecting safer insecticides for dytiscid conservation in agricultural and adjacent habitats, considering the potential of these water bodies becoming ecological traps that keep attracting and killing aquatic beneficials. The water-exiting behavior found indicates the capability of some wildlife to effectively avoid further exposure to toxicants.
