The mirid bug Apolygus lucorum (Meyer‐Dür) is a major pest affecting tea. Identifying the dominant predatory spiders of the mirid bug can provide a scientific basis for developing biological control technologies. Xysticus ephippiatus demonstrates the greatest potential as a biological control agent against A. lucorum.

ABSTRACT A study conducted in Egypt evaluated the effectiveness of chemical and microbial agents in enhancing sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum) defenses against major pests Aphis gossypii and Thrips tabaci and their natural predators, Chrysoperla carnea and Orius insidiosus. Five foliar treatments were tested under greenhouse conditions during

Jumping mechanisms in lacewings (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae and Hemerobiidae) [PDF]
AbstractLacewings launch themselves into the air by simultaneous propulsive movements of the middle and hind legs as revealed in video images captured at a rate of 1000 s-1. These movements were powered largely by thoracic trochanteral depressor muscles but did not start from a particular preset position of these legs.

Response of chrysopids (Neuroptera) to larval tracks of aphidophagous coccinellids (Coleoptera)
Choice tests showed that tracks left by coccinellid larvae have generally little effect on oviposition site selection by chrysopid females. Fresh tracks of first instar larvae of the coccinellid species Coccinella septempunctata, Cycloneda limbifer, Leis

Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks
Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks. Zeus Mateos‐Fierro*, Ashley Leach, Ian Kaplan. Spider mite and melon aphid outbreaks are enhanced with broad‐spectrum insecticides, while natural enemies are reduced. However, rye cover crop has little effect on either pest or natural enemy populations.

Insect biological control of the tomato‐potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli, a review
ABSTRACT The tomato‐potato psyllid (TPP) Bactericera cockerelli is a polyphagous herbivore and a renowned pest of solanaceous crops found in America and the Pacific region. Over the last fifteen years, several strategies have been tested worldwide to successfully manage this species, but these have been mostly unsuccessful.
