Abstract In the framework of a survey arthropods in rest stops Hungarian highways, 19 species jumping plant lice were collected. Three belong to family Aphalaridae, one Calophyidae, two Liviidae, nine Psyllidae and four Triozidae. Two ( Livilla variegata Trioza neglecta ) are alien, non-indigenous species; others native Hungary. The most abundant Calophya rhois , Cacopsylla melanoneura . specim...

intraguild predation (igp) occurs when one predator species consumes another predator species with whom it also competes for shared prey. we studied igp between different stages of hippodamia variegata and aphidoletes aphidimyza in absence and presence of extraguild prey (aphis gossypii) in petri dish arena. in the absence of extraguild prey all stages of h. variegata (larva1, 2, 3, 4, female a...

The Adonis ladybird, Hippodamia variegataGoeze (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) is known as an important predator of the Common pistachio psylla, Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt & Lauterer (Hemiptera: Psyllidae). Despite using the selective pesticides to manage the pests in the pistachio orchards, these chemicals have influenced non-target organisms like predators and parasitoids. ...

myocardial infarction is a common presentation of coronary artery disease and the leading cause of death worldwide. the present study was investigated potential resistance to ischemia-reperfusion (i/r) injuries following administration of methanolic (meoh) extract of scrophularia frigida (s. frigida) in isolated rat heart. male wistar rat hearts (n= 8-10) were isolated and allowed to equilibrat...

coccinellids play a major role in aphid control. hippodamia variegata goeze is an aphidophagous predator of worldwide distribution that could be found in different parts of iran. one of the criteria for evaluating the efficiency of a predator is its response to change in prey population density (functional response). the functional responses of males and females of hippodamia variegata were stu...
