Egg Cannibalism Varies With Sex, Reproductive Status, and Egg and Nymph Ages in Arma custos (Hemiptera: Asopinae)

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background: Egg cannibalism is common in nature. In China, Arma custos (Hemiptera: Asopinae) has been widely used as a natural enemy to control agricultural and forestry pests. A previous study showed that adult A. custos devour their eggs.

Hemipteran insects experience recurrent and synergistic molecular evolution adapting to diet shift [PDF]

BMC Biology
Background Hemiptera is an insect order with extremely high physiological and behavioral diversity. Feeding traits have switched and reversed multiple times, but the molecular basis governing this phenotypical change remains unclear.

Performance of the predatory stink bug Arma custos against the tea tussock moth, Euproctis pseudoconspersa

Biological Control
The tea tussock moth, Euproctis pseudoconspersa, is a major defoliator in tea plantations, causing significant yield losses. Its urticating hairs also pose a health risk to harvesters, disrupting agricultural activities.

Population Growth Performance of Arma custos (Faricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) at Different Temperatures. [PDF]

J Insect Sci, 2022
Abstract Arma custos (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is a natural predator that can control various agricultural and forestry pests. This study aimed to clarify the effects of temperature on the growth, reproduction, and population of the predator and to simulate its population growth. Using the age–stage, two-sex life table method,

Characterizing the Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Arma custos and Picromerus lewisi (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae: Asopinae) and Conducting Phylogenetic Analysis. [PDF]

J Insect Sci, 2022
Abstract We characterized the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) and conducted phylogenetic analyses of 48 Hemiptera species by sequencing and analyzing the mitogenome of Arma custos (Fabricius) and Picromerus lewisi (Scott). The complete mitogenomes of the two predators were 16,024 bp and 19,587 bp in length, respectively, and it ...

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 ...
