Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Starvation duration alters predatory behaviour of Eriopis connexa, affecting aphid consumption and survival dynamics. Increased starvation enhances attack rate, accelerating prey depletion without substantially affecting handling time. Functional response remains type II, with stronger predation under prolonged food deprivation.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.MeJA application strengthened both direct and indirect coffee defenses against the white mealybug Planococcus citri, whereas the effects of MeSA were variable and context‐dependent across the defensive traits examined. The combined application of both elicitors produced an effect similar to MeSA on direct defenses, but resembled MeJA when indirect ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Entomological Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, September 2026.Ant presence was associated with lower gall density on Macaranga beccariana, whereas trees lacking ant defense had more galls and showed different parasitism patterns. Results from this natural experiment suggest that plant‐ants may indirectly influence gall midges through their effects on multitrophic interactions.
