Effects of diet on development and reproductive fitness of two predatory coccinellids (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
Studies of prey suitability are needed to develop efficient mass rearing programs for generalist predators and to understand their potential contribution to integrated pest management. A laboratory study was conducted to evaluate the development and reproductive success of two predatory coccinellids...
