This thesis investigates several ecological characteristics of the fourteen-spotted ladybird beetle, Propylea quatuordecimpunctata L. (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), reared on the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae Scopoli (Hemiptera: Aphididae), using mathematical models. The effect of temperature on the development, survival, longevity and fecundity of the P.

Alien vs . Predator - the native lacewing Chrysoperla carnea is the superior intraguild predator in trials against the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis [PDF]
The alien invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera Coccinellidae) is a biological control agent of aphids and in the larval stage it is a very voracious and superior intraguild predator over most native ladybirds studied, except the large

Inbreeding studies of Propylea quatuordecimpunctata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) [PDF]
From 64 parental (P₀) Propylea quatuordecimpunctata (L.) pairs collected from three locations in the Northeastern United States, up to five inbred generations were obtained by sib-mating.

Sticky traps were set around a corn field in order to study how it is colonized by coccinellids during Spring time. In this peculiar agrobiocoenose, adults of Adonia variegata, Coccinella septempunctata and Propylea quatuordecimpunctata arrived generally from a southward direction and, to be more precise, from 2 main directions; south-westward and ...
