Enhanced flight performance in hoverfly migrants [PDF]
iScienceSummary: Many animals undergo seasonal migrations in which they travel long distances aided by variations in morphology, physiology, and behavior. Here, we compare the flight characteristics, measured in a tethered flight mill, of autumn migratory and ...

Perception of aphid infested tomato plant volatiles by the predator Episyrphus balteatus [PDF]
, 2005 In a tritrophic interaction including tomato plant (Lycopersicon esculentum Miller), the herbivore Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and the predator Episyrphus balteatus (De Geer), the perception of the tomato plants produced volatile organic compounds (VOC) by Episyrphus balteatus is investigated.

Combination of morphometric and isotopic tools for studying spring migration dynamics in Episyrphus balteatus [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2014 Migration and population dynamics are important in organisms that provide ecosystem services as they determine the occurrence of individuals in a given place at a given time, which, in turn, determines the efficiency of the service provided. To design appropriate landscape management strategies to improve the efficiency of biological control, it is ...

Oviposition preferences of Episyrphus balteatus.
Mededelingen (Rijksuniversiteit te Gent. Fakulteit van de Landbouwkundige en Toegepaste Biologische Wetenschappen), 2001 A crucial aspect of predator oviposition behaviour is host plant choice, especially in hoverflies where the newly hatched offspring are unable to move a great distance to search for the appropriate prey. Such offspring must generally feed on the host plant aphids previously selected by the mother.

The costs and consequences of parasitoid attack for the predatory hoverfly, Episyrphus balteatus
, 2005 Question: What are the life-history costs for a predatory insect of surviving parasitoid attack, and can parasitoid attack alter predator-prey interactions? Hypotheses: Survivorship is influenced by host age.
