.... The results of the present study indicate that these differences in salinity tolerance cannot be explained by differences in the general ability to accumulate amino acids as organic osmolytes. Although there may be differences in the metabolic pathways involved in osmolyte accumulation in foot muscle tissue...

... cuticle of adults, P. jitanasaius larvae and eggs display better salinity tolerance. Most P. jitanasaius adult weevils did not survive more than 24 h in water, although they survived longer in freshwater than in saltwater. Different salinity tolerances at different life cycle stages was also observed...
