“…Few natural enemies have been reported on Eulachnus aphids (Kaliuzhna, 2014; Kavallieratos et al ., 2016). In our study, four ladybird species (Coccinellidae) were collected with peak populations synchronized with the peak of the aphid population.…”

“…A survey conducted on conifer aphids and their natural enemies in Spain detected no natural enemy feeding on this species (Nunez‐Perez & Tizado, 1996). Three other Eulachnus species, E. agilis (Kaltenbach), E. mediterraneus Binazzi and E. tuberculostemmatus , have been reported as the main hosts of Diaeretus leucopterus (Haliday) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and Praon bicolor Mackauer (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) on Pinus (Kaliuzhna, 2014; Kavallieratos et al ., 2016).…”

Eulachnus tuberculostemmatus (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is the most abundant aphid species attacking pine trees in Isfahan, Iran. 2 Population fluctuations of this species and its natural enemies were studied on Pinus brutia var. eldarica by weekly sampling. Its fertility-life table parameters were determined in the field in spring and summer 2016. Furthermore, effects of different temperatures (15, 20, 25, and 30 ∘ C) and irrigation regimens (well irrigated, moderately and highly drought-stressed) on its performance were investigated in the laboratory. 3 The aphid population reached its peak abundance between 11 April and 23 May. Also, a minor peak was observed between mid-November and mid-December. During the survey, no sexual morphs were observed. Most fertility-life table parameters of E. tuberculostemmatus were found to be significantly higher in spring than in summer. Aphids reared at 20 and 25 ∘ C had a significantly higher net reproductive rate, intrinsic rate of increase and finite capacity for increase compared to those reared at 15 and 30 ∘ C. Also, the aphid performed significantly better on highly drought-stressed trees, due to higher survival rate, female adult longevity and fecundity. 4 Population peaks of the four Coccinellidae predators Adalia bipunctata, Hippodamia variegata, Propylea quatuordecimpunctata and Coccinella septempunctata coincided with that of the aphid. Keywords Fertility-life table, intrinsic rate of increase, pine forest, Pinus brutia.

Food web structure of aphids and their parasitoids in Belgian fruit agroecosystems

Quantitative food webs were constructed between aphids and their parasitoids on fruit crop plants, non‐crop woody and shrub plants, and non‐crop herbaceous plants in fruit agroecosystems of eastern Belgium. The results show that trophic indirect interactions through parasitoids, that is, apparent competition, may govern aphid populations in fruit crop habitats with various non‐crop plants, implying the importance for landscape management and biological control of aphid pests in fruit agroecosystems.

“…Molecular analysis on the basis of COI gene barcoding showed that A. ambiguus and A. salicaphis are closely related species, and COI gene could not diff erentiate them well enough (Stanković et al, 2015). Despite the morphological uniformity of these species, several diagnostic characters are visible, including a diff erence in wing width of A. ambiguus and A. salicaphis (Kaliuzhna, 2014); the latter character was confi rmed by geometric morphometry method (Stanković et al, 2015).…”

Genus Adialytus is represented in Europe by four species, only two of which are recorded in the fauna of Ukraine: Adialytus ambiguus (Haliday, 1834) and Adialytus salicaphis (Fitch, 1855). Data on the distribution of these species, their trophic specialization, and habitat associations are provided on the basis of material from the collection of I. I. Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (SIZK) and previous publications. A. ambiguus is a broad oligophagous, however, parasitizing mostly species of the genus Sipha on Poaceae. In Ukraine, A. ambiguus is found in the Forest-Steppe zone (Kyiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Poltava regions), in the Zone of broad-leaved forests of Ukraine (Ternopil region). Adialytus salicaphis is registered for now only in the Zone of mixed forests of Ukraine (Kyiv region). This species is a narrow oligophagous and develops on aphids of the genus Chaitophorus on Salix and Populus. Its potential areal might include also Forest-Steppe zone (more probably on the Left Bank of Dnieper River) and plains of big rivers in the Steppe zone of Ukraine. The potential role of these species as biocontrol agents is discussed: A. ambiguus could be recommended for consideration as a new candidate for biocontrol of Sipha spp. and probably Rhopalosiphum spp, on cereal crops in Ukraine, while A. salicaphis is not a species of practical importance in the country now. We consider quite probable finding in Ukraine another well-distributed European species A. thelaxis (Starý, 1961), which is a parasitoid of aphids of the genus Thelaxes on oaks.
