DIVERSITY OF APHIDIDAE OF UTTARAKHAND
Agricultural crops face numerous pest-problems, particularly due to aphids, scale-insects, mealybugs, white-flies, mites, etc. Aphids (Homoptera: Aphididae) are one of the important pests of crops, and are highly injurious for cultivated and non-cultivated crops. We reported eighteen aphid species belong to twelve genera in Kumaun region.

Using the loess method to describe the effect of temperature on development rate
Temperature has a significant influence on development rates of insects and mites. Many parametric models were built to describe the temperature-dependent development rates.

The level of aggressiveness of an individual is a factor that shapes intraguild predation (IGP) interactions. In Nabis americoferus, high aggressiveness leads to an increase in attack rate and IGP against Harmonia axyridis. Moreover, the absence of extraguild prey seems to exacerbate IGP. In docile N.

Important predaceous insects of citrus aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in the north of Iran [PDF]
- Several species of aphids cause severe damage to citrus in the north of Iran. Predatory insects play an important role in biological control of the pests in citrus orchards. In this study, potential predatory insects of citrus aphids, Aphis spiraecola,

The mutualism between Tapinoma ibericum ants and Aphis gossypii disrupts the biological control exerted by Aphidius colemani in greenhouse peppers. Ant exclusion increased parasitism and the presence of most natural enemies, although Aphidoletes aphidimyza was more abundant with ants.

Respiratory metabolism of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
The respiratory metabolism of different polyphenic forms of the pea aphid, including wingless and winged asexual females (virginoparae), sexual females (oviparae) and winged or wingless adult males, was investigated using a micro-respirographic method ...

Reduced fertilization regimes could boost biocontrol service without reducing crop yield
Fertilization level influences pest control effectiveness in tomato crops. High fertilization increases plant growth and aphid density but reduces the performance of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi. In contrast, the predator Adalia bipunctata maintains consistent aphid suppression regardless of fertilization regime.
