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 ...

Abundance of adult hoverflies (Diptera: Syrphidae) on different flowering plants
Encouraging natural enemies by growing attractive plants is considered an effective method of pest control in organic farming. However, it is important to identify which flowers best attract beneficial insects.

Estimating Predatory Efficiency of Episyrphus balteatus (Diptera: Syrphidae) in Cereal Fields
A model was developed to estimate the effect of predation by Episyrphus balteatus larvae on aphid populations in fields of winter wheat. Feeding rate of syrphid larvae was estimated from experiments in field cages using a Holling type-III function. During larval development, syrphids consumed a maximum of 396 aphids, which is only half the potential ...

Perception of aphid infested tomato plant volatiles by the predator Episyrphus balteatus
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.

The blooming wild plants in the vicinity of orchards may attract adult Syrphidae to these cultivations. Hence in 2008–2010 studies were conducted around Czempiń (western Wielkopolska) which covered the occurrence of the imagines of 5 dominant predatory ...
