<div>Some studies suggest that some species take potassium from
wet soil etc.. The males pass the potassium on to the females
during mating and the potassium becomes part of the eggshell.
The emerging larvae eat the eggshell getting a boost of
potassium. The species that frequently do this feed on potassium
poor plants.</div>
