Rearing Istocheta aldrichi (Diptera: Tachinidae) From Field‐Collected Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica): 1. Methods to Improve Insect Collection and Parasitoid Pupariation

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We describe methods for collecting and rearing the tachinid parasitoid Istocheta aldrichi from parasitized Japanese beetle adults. Hosts can be collected by hand and reared in the laboratory, or by using modified trap containers with added plant material and substrate to provide suitable conditions for I.

Physiological Host Range of the Tachinid Istocheta aldrichi, a Potential Biological Control Agent for the Japanese Beetle in Europe

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study provides the first laboratory assessment of the physiological host range of Istocheta aldrichi, a candidate biological control agent for Popillia japonica in Europe. In sequential no‐choice tests with 14 European scarab beetles, the parasitoid oviposited on six species but successfully developed only in the two Rutelinae Anomala vitis and ...

Life‐History Traits and Overwintering of Actia interrupta (Diptera: Tachinidae), a Larval Parasitoid of Choristoneura fumiferana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Actia interrupta is a larval tachinid parasitoid that plays a key role in regulating low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. We describe its immature stages, life‐history traits, host‐searching behavior, development, and confirm its larviparous reproductive strategy.

Oviposition Site Selection in Relation to Hatchling Feeding Performance in Two Sympatric Papilio Butterflies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated oviposition site selection and hatchling feeding performance in two sympatric swallowtail butterflies, Papilio xuthus and Papilio memnon (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), that utilize Citrus trees as host plants. Our study suggests that each species has unique relationships between maternal oviposition preferences and hatchling feeding ...

Methyl Jasmonate and Methyl Salicylate Differentially Modulate Direct and Indirect Defenses in Coffee Plants Against the White Mealybug

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
MeJA application strengthened both direct and indirect coffee defenses against the white mealybug Planococcus citri, whereas the effects of MeSA were variable and context‐dependent across the defensive traits examined. The combined application of both elicitors produced an effect similar to MeSA on direct defenses, but resembled MeJA when indirect ...
