Effects of a past contest on the future winning probability in a hyper‐aggressive fruit fly

Ethology, Volume 129, Issue 8, Page 380-389, August 2023., 2023
We found no evidence of the winner–loser effect in a hyper‐aggressive fruit fly D. prolongata. Instead, both winners and losers decreased the subsequent winning probability, indicating that the past contest itself has a negative impact on the future contest.

Factors influencing short‐term parasitoid establishment and efficacy for the biological control of Halyomorpha halys with the samurai wasp Trissolcus japonicus

Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 7, Page 2397-2414, July 2023., 2023
High parasitization of Trissolcus japonicus on Halyomorpha halys recorded at release and adventive sites. Both species are favored by the same landscape elements, mediating risk for nontarget species. Abstract BACKGROUND Classical biological control has been identified as the most promising approach to limit the impact of the invasive pest species ...

Pest categorisation of Dendrolimus spectabilis

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Dendrolimus spectabilis (Lepidoptera: Lasiocampidae), a moth, also known as the Japanese pine caterpillar, for the European Union (EU). D. spectabilis is native to China, Japan and Korea. Its larvae primarily feed on the needles of Pinus densiflora and P. thunbergii and can also

Biocontrol implications of multiparasitism by Trissolcus mitsukurii and Trissolcus japonicus on the invasive brown marmorated stink bug

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 170, Issue 9, Page 772-781, September 2022., 2022
Halyomorpha halys (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is an invasive pest of crops. Adventive populations of its egg parasitoids Trissolcus japonicus and T. mitsukurii (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) are spreading across northern Italy. Trissolcus japonicus was selected for an Italian biocontrol program against H. halys.
