Influence of different densities and nymphal instars of Aphis gossypii (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on developmental time and feeding rate of larvae of Episyrphus balteatus (Diptera: Syrphidae) under greenhouse conditions [PDF]
Several aphidophagous insects such as predators and parasitoids are known to respond positively to aphid infested plants. This study was intended to evaluate the effect of different densities (40, 60, 80, 100) and nymphal instars (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th) of

Abstract Flower plantings in agricultural landscapes can contribute to sustainable crop production by enhancing pollination and biological control services. However, selecting plant species that promote multiple ecosystem services is challenging, since plants that favor pollinators may not equally foster natural enemies, and potential trade‐offs, such ...

NATURAL ENEMIES OF DIURAPHIS NOXIA (STERNORRHYNCHA: APHIDIDAE) IN SLOVAKIA [PDF]
A study from 2002 documented the occurrence of natural enemies (parasitoid wasps, predatory fl ies, entomopathogenic fungi) associated with colonies of the Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Kurdjumov, 1913) (Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae), in the spring ...

The foraging behaviour of beneficials such as aphidophagous predators depend largely on volatile compounds emitted by potential preys. Even if polyphagous predatory species are considered, all the potential preys are not systematically localised and ...

Most insect pollinators are ectothermic and rely on external heat sources for temperature regulation. Forests, with their diverse canopy structures and sunlight penetration levels, create a mosaic of microclimates influencing these insects' behaviour.

Cereal aphids (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) in Serbia: Seasonal dynamics and natural enemies
During 1989-2006 the number of live aphid, mummies, aphid specialist predators and their parasitoids in cereal fields in Serbia were recorded. S. avenae and M. dirhodum were the most common, both on wheat and rye crops.

Les pucerons des cultures protégées et leurs ennemis en Tunisie [PDF]
Aphids in the protected crops and their natural enemy in Tunisia. The importance of damage caused by aphids in protected crops, led us to carry out the inventory of aphids as well as the antagonists and to study the distribution of aphid population of ...
