Insecticide‐contaminated honeydew: risks for beneficial insects [PDF]
Biological Reviews, 2021 ABSTRACTHoneydew is the sugar‐rich excretion of phloem‐feeding hemipteran insects such as aphids, mealybugs, whiteflies, and psyllids, and can be a main carbohydrate source for beneficial insects in some ecosystems. Recent research has revealed that water‐soluble, systemic insecticides contaminate honeydew excreted by hemipterans that feed on plants ...
