Bibliography of the Aphid Predator, Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)
Bulletin of the Entomological Society of America, 1982The majority of species in the family Cecidomyiidae are either phytophagous or gall forming. However, the larvae of Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) feed as predators upon many species of aphids. The adult females are small, delicate midges that are very adept at locating aphid infestations and ovipositing upon leaf surfaces near aphids.

(2R,7S)-Diacetoxytridecane: Sex Pheromone of the Aphidophagous Gall Midge, Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2004In a recent study, evidence was presented that females of the aphidophagous midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondi) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) release a sex pheromone to attract mates. Our objectives were to identify and bioassay the pheromone. Coupled gas chromatographic-electroantennographic detection(GC-EAD) analyses of untreated and hydrogenated ...

Diapause Prevention in Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) by Low-intensity Light
Environmental Entomology, 1986Low-intensity radiation at night prevented diapause in larvae of the predatory midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) under environmental conditions (9:15 [L:D] photoperiod and 2l:l5°C [T:C] thermoperiod) that induced 100% diapause when “night” was dark.

Impact of Humidity on the Biological Development ofAphidoletes aphidimyza(Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2016Aphidoletes aphidimyza Rondani (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) is one of the most important predators used in the augmentative biological control of aphids worldwide. However, due to its particular life history, mass rearing A. aphidimyza remains difficult.

Analysis of Chilling Injury in the Biological Control Agent Aphidoletes aphidimyza
Cryobiology, 1995Abstract A model was used to determine the cooling rate necessary to prevent chilling injury embryuos of the biological control agent Aphidoletes aphidintyza and thus indicate whether conventional cryopreservation (using slow cooling rates is achievable for this species.

ZUR SUCHFÄHIGKEIT DER EILARVEN VON APHIDOLETES APHIDIMYZA (DIPTERA: CECIDOMYIIDAE)
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1973Die Eilarven der aphidophagen Gallmücke Aphidoletes aphidimyza tasteten auf der Suche nach ihrer ersten Beute im Schnitt nur 0.76 cm2 der Blattfläche ab, bevor sie verhungerten. Aus dem Sucherfolg bei unterschiedlicher Blattlausdichte ergab sich aber, daß sie die Beute auf einem Areal von 2,70 cm2 erfaßten, also offenbar bereits auf kurze Entfernung ...

An Attractant of the Aphidophagous Gall Midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza From Honeydew of Aphis gossypii
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2016Many natural enemies of insects use honeydew as a volatile cue to locate hosts or prey, as an oviposition stimulant, and as an arrestant for foraging. The aphidophagous gall midge Aphidoletes aphidimyza (Rondani) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) has predacious larval stages and can be used to control aphid populations, especially in greenhouses.
