Semi‐tillage, a widely used agricultural method to improve water availability and minimise soil erosion in crops, may compromise pest control in olive groves. Stable isotopes (N15 and C13) analysis showed an effect of semi‐tillage in the composition of the basal resources of potential natural enemies in the three olive grove strata: These changes may ...

The noctuid pest western bean cutworm (Striacosta albicosta) lays its eggs in corn fields over the season. Various generalist predators consume the eggs and larvae of this pest. To improve integrated pest management of S. albicosta, this study identified key trophic interactions between S. albicosta and predatory arthropods in corn fields.

OPTICAL STRUCTURE OF THE CRAB SPIDER MISUMENOPS PALLENS (ARANEAE, THOMISIDAE)
We describe the histological structure of the eyes of Misumenops pallens(Araneae, Thom- isidae). We have carried out frontal, sagittal and transverse histological sections of the eyes. All the eyes have cuticular and laminar corneas and lenses. The anterior median eyes have two cellular types in the rhabdom; the remaining eyes have three cellular types.
