“…Intraguild predation (IGP), whereby a predator consumes another species that shares common prey item, has been reported as a common occurrence among coccinellids (Agarwala & Dixon, ; Obrycki et al ., ; Dixon, ; Michaud, ; Lucas, ; Kajita et al ., ). Laboratory and semifield (e.g., cage) experiments suggest that H. axyridis is frequently involved in IGP, acting as a strong and asymmetric predator of other aphidophagous coccinellids (Burgio et al ., ; Michaud, ; Yasuda et al ., ; Gardiner & Landis, ; Pell et al ., ; Ware & Majerus, ; Moser & Obrycki, ; Raak‐van den Berg et al ., ; Rondoni et al ., ; Ingels et al ., ).…”
