The acceptability of four different aphid species Macrosiphum albifrons (Essig), Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thomas), Macrosiphum pseudorosae Patch, and Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), as prey for four lady beetle species, one native species Coccinella trifasciata L, and three non-native Coccinella septempunctata L, Harmonia axyridis Pallas, Propylea quatuordecimpunctata L (Coleopte...

Harmonia axyridis has been introduced as a biological control agent in Europe and the USA. Since its introduction, it has established and spread, and it is now regarded as an invasive alien species. It has been suggested that intraguild predation is especially important for the invasion success of H. axyridis. The aim of this study was to compare the intraguild predation behaviour of three lady...

Bu çalışmada, 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında Çanakkale ili park, peyzaj kentsel alanlarında bulunan konukçu bitkiler üzerindeki afitler ile beslenen predatör coccinellidler coccinellid-afit-konukçu bitki etkileşimlerinin ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, 25 bitkideki 27 afit türü üzerinde olarak beslendiği tespit edilen Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) familyasına bağlı 6 cins içerisinde ...

The family Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) includes important predatory natural enemies in agricultural crops. To survive, this group uses different occurring resources across the landscape; therefore, landscape can influence community agroecosystems. In context, work aims to evaluate response of context within a gradient distances from vineyards managed under sustainable production methods. For tha...
