Ant–aphid mutualism: the influence of Tapinoma ibericum (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) on Aphis gossypii (Hemiptera: Aphidae) control by commercial and spontaneous natural enemies

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The mutualism between Tapinoma ibericum ants and Aphis gossypii disrupts the biological control exerted by Aphidius colemani in greenhouse peppers. Ant exclusion increased parasitism and the presence of most natural enemies, although Aphidoletes aphidimyza was more abundant with ants.

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

Molecular analysis of the gut contents of Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) as a method for detecting intra-guild predation by this species on aphidophagous predators other than coccinellids

European Journal of Entomology, 2013
Several studies have demonstrated that the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis is a strong intra-guild predator of native species of ladybird. Laboratory studies have shown that H.

Field Attraction of Natural Enemies to Methyl Salicylate Differs Between Annual and Perennial Cropping Systems

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is an herbivore‐induced plant volatile (HIPV) known to attract natural enemies of herbivores; however, its effectiveness as a semiochemical across diverse cropping systems and broad geographic regions remains unclear. In this 2‐year field study, we sampled natural enemies using MeSA‐baited and unbaited (control) yellow

Parasitoidism by Brachymeria pandora (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae) in Pupae of Danaus erippus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in an Urban Savanna Area

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The Chalcididae comprises parasitoid wasps that attack various invertebrate groups. Within the family, some Brachymeria species specialises in infecting pupae of Lepidoptera. Here, we quantitatively describe the relationship between Brachymeria pandora and the Southern Monarch butterfly, Danaus erippus, in urban areas of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso ...
