Effects of pollen, sugars and honeydew on lifespan and nutrient levels of Episyrphus balteatus [PDF]
BioControl, 2014 Hoverflies require pollen, nectar and honeydew during their adult stage, but little is known about the suitability and nutrient provision of each of those resources. Thus, in this study we assessed the effect of different types of food, such as carbohydrates (glucose, fructose, sucrose and honey), pollen, a mixture of honey and pollen, and honeydew on ...
