Larvae of many hoverfly species prey upon aphids, whereas the adults, by relying on nectar and pollen, contribute to the pollination of many plant species. Despite their great potential for pest control and pollination, important gaps still exist regarding the efficacy of hoverflies in regulating infestations of major aphid pests in augmentative biological control programs. Here, we tested the potential of the commercially available hoverflies Eupeodes corollae and Sphaerophoria rueppellii to regulate populations of the foxglove aphid Aulacorthum solani in sweet pepper.

蚜虫的蚜虫减少了甜椒蚜虫的侵扰，并改善了甜椒的结实率和果实产量

许多Hoverfly物种的幼虫捕食蚜虫，而成虫则依靠花蜜和花粉促进了许多植物物种的授粉。尽管它们在有害生物控制和授粉方面具有巨大潜力，但在增生生物防治计划中，蚜虫在调节主要蚜虫有害生物侵染的功效方面仍存在重要差距。在这里，我们测试了市售Hoverflies Eupeodes花冠和Sphaerophoria rueppellii调节甜椒中毛地黄蚜蚜Aulacorthum solani种群的潜力。
