Predator niche overlap predicts effects on aphid vectors and a vector-borne virus. [PDF]
Abstract Multiple predator species can enhance or disrupt prey suppression based on whether different predators forage in complementary or overlapping niches. Interactions between predator species are primarily evaluated by resulting effects on prey abundance, although alterations of prey behavior also occur.

Like adults, larvae of the myrmecophilous ladybird Coccinella magnifica are rarely attacked by Formica rufa ants on foraging trails, but more often attacked on ant-tended aphid colonies.

Abundance of Cereal Aphids (Homoptera: Aphididae) and Their Predators in Spring Wheat-Alfalfa Intercrops Under Different Crop Management Intensities [PDF]
Natural infestations of cereal aphids and abundance of their predators were compared from 1990 through 1993 among plots of intercropped spring wheat and alfalfa grown under high, intermediate, or low crop management intensity (CMI).

Characteristics and drivers of high-altitude ladybird flight: insights from vertical-looking entomological radar [PDF]
Understanding the characteristics and drivers of dispersal is crucial for predicting population dynamics, particularly in range-shifting species. Studying long-distance dispersal in insects is challenging, but recent advances in entomological radar offer
