Estimation of population growth for two species of lady beetles (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) under different temperatures

Cynara Moura de Oliveira et al.

Summary: Ladybird beetles Tenuisvalvae notata and Cryptolaemus montrouzieri are important predators of mealybugs, with their development and reproduction affected by temperature. Higher temperatures can shorten their developmental period while not significantly impacting female longevity or egg production. T. notata shows higher generation time and intrinsic rate of increase at 28 degrees C, and both species can complete more generations annually in locations with higher temperatures.

Interactions Among Native and Non-Native Predatory Coccinellidae Influence Biological Control and Biodiversity

Hongran Li et al.

Summary: This study reviews the effects of predatory Coccinellidae spreading to new continents over the past 30 years, emphasizing the ecological interactions of native and non-native ladybirds. It highlights the impact of the spread of non-native species on the abundance of native ladybirds, stressing the importance of studying the community ecology of invasive species in their native habitats for future research.

Prey and predator biodiversity mediate aphid consumption by generalists

Karol L. Krey et al.

Summary: Research indicates that higher arthropod diversity can enhance biological pest control by bringing together predator species with complementary feeding niches. The study found that predator biodiversity in potato crops positively influenced aphid predation, but evenness of predators had a negative impact on Geocoris predation. Additionally, prey species identity had a significant effect on aphid predation in complex agricultural fields.

Potential displacement of the native Tenuisvalvae notata by the invasive Cryptolaemus montrouzieri in South America suggested by differences in climate suitability

Larissa F. Ferreira et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that introduced alien ladybird beetle species could have negative impacts on native ladybird populations in South America, particularly in terms of climate suitability where the introduced species C. montrouzieri has an advantage over the native species T. notata.
