In open arena assays, the response of the egg parasitoid Trissolcus basalis to substrate‐borne semiochemicals left by the host Nezara viridula was affected by the non‐host Spodoptera littoralis. Non‐host larval traces reduced T. basalis residence time spent on walking traces from gravid N. viridula females but did not affect responses to walking traces

Abstract The biodiversity of Greek agroecosystems is constantly changing, with the influx of new species reshaping food webs. The present study contributes to the documentation of Greek fauna by reporting, for the first time, the occurrence of the Asian predatory ladybird Serangium montazerii Fürsch (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). The species was detected
