Tests were conducted to determine interspecific interactions between an egg parasite, Trichogramma pretiosum (Riley), and a general predator, Xylocoris flavipes (Reuter), of the almond moth, Cadra ...

COMPATIBILITY OF XYLOCORIS FLAVIPES (HEMIPTERA: ANTHOCORLDAE) AND VENTURIA CANESCENS (HYMENOPTERA: ICHNEUMONIDAE) FOR SUPPRESSION OF THE ALMOND MOTH, CADRA CAUTELLA (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE)

The predaceous bug Xylocoris flavipes (Reuter) was combined with the parasitic wasp Venturia canescens Gravenhorst to assess their compatibility in suppressing the almond moth, Cadra cautella (Walk...

Functional Response of Anisopteromalus calandrae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae): Influence of Host Numbers Versus Host Density

The functional response of Anisopteromalus calandrae (Howard) was measured on rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), in wheat at 30° C. Four female parasitoids, with males...
