How a Melanism Mutant Responds to Different Temperatures: A Case Study in Ladybird Beetle <i>Harmonia axyridis</i> Demonstrating Thermal-Induced Phenotypic Plasticity. [PDF]
Ecol Evolml, inherited in a Mendelian autosomal recessive manner, is a novel melanism mutant of Harmonia axyridis. When compared to wt, ml exhibited vastly smaller changes in the occurrence frequencies of dark spots on both the dorsal cuticles of pupa and elytra in response to thermal variations. ml had very high melanin level even at 32.5°C and showed a higher

Aggregation behaviour of Harmonia axyridis
, 2013 The multicoloured Asian ladybeetle, Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), forms large aggregations inside dwellings to survive cold winters. The species’ migratory flight is well documented. Harmonia axyridis preferentially moves towards prominent and visually contrasting elements (Obata, 1986; Nalepa et al., 2005).

Harmonia axyridis: a threat to Brazilian Coccinellidae? Harmonia axyridis: uma ameaça aos Coccinellidae brasileiros? [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2009 Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae) is a polyphagous Asian species, well-known as a classical biological control agent of aphids around the world, introduced probably accidentally in Brazil, sampled for the first time in 2002. It is an important intraguild predator, competing for food with native coccinellids.
