heal.abstract	Abstract—The Glanville fritillary butterfly Melitaea cinxiafeeds upon two host plant species in ˚ Aland, Finland, Plantago lanceolataand Veronica spicata, both of which produce iridoid glycosides. Iridoids are known,to deter feeding or de- crease the growth rate of many generalist insect herbivores, but they often act as oviposition cues to specialist butterflies and are feeding stimulants to their larvae.
