We report a method for rearing Diplolepis mayri (Schlechtendal) and D. rosae (Linnaeus) under controlled conditions using Rosa rubiginosa (L.) and R. canina L. wild rose shrubs. Plants were kept at a temperature of 22–23°C, 60%–70% humidity, with L14:D10 (2023) and L16:D8 (2024) photoperiod cycles. A second D.

Ants do not prey upon an extrafloral‐nectar‐feeding predatory mite
The predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus is an important natural enemy of various crop pests and occurs in agroforestry coffee systems, where it feeds on the extrafloral nectar of Inga trees. Because extrafloral nectaries are often vigorously defended by ants, we tested whether ants would attack and kill the mites near nectaries.

Deterring egg predators with faecal strings is more efficient when eggs are aggregated
Egg aggregation and faecal strings interact to reduce predation risk. Faecal strings enhance egg survival, but only at higher egg densities. Multiple antipredator traits are needed for effective egg defence. Abstract Predation can be a great source of mortality for insect eggs. Thus, female insects use multiple strategies to reduce it.

Salicylate plant defences reduce aphid nutritional quality and increase predator consumption
Salicylic acid‐induced defences diminish Macrosiphum euphorbiae performance and nutritional quality by reducing body protein and lipid content. Ladybird beetle predators (Hippodamia convergens) consumed more low‐quality aphids compared to high‐quality aphids, exhibiting compensatory feeding response to nutrient‐deficient p prey.
