Surprising Symbiosis: Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter Eats With Friends
Like a celebrity living on mineral water, the glassy-wingedsharpshooter consumes only the dilute sap of woody plants — including grapevinesin California,which is feverishly working to prevent the insect's flight into prizedvineyards.
