ABSTRACT

Monalonion bondari is an important Theobroma cacao. pest in Brazil and information about their natural predators is lacking. Thus, the aim of this study was to record for the first time the predation of M. bondari by Zelus pedestris in the field and confirm this predatory activity in the laboratory. In the laboratory, predation by Z. pedestris resulted in the mortality of 45% of nymphs and 40% of adults of M. bondari. This is the first record of Z. pedestris preying on M. bondari and can be a potential species to be used for the biological control of this pest.

Zelus pedestris (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) 捕食可可害虫 Monalonion Bondari (Hemiptera: Miridae) 的首次记录

摘要

Monalonion bondari是一种重要的可可树。巴西的害虫及其天敌的信息缺乏。因此,本研究的目的是首次记录Zelus pedestris在野外捕食M. bondari的情况,并在实验室确认这种捕食活动。在实验室中,Z. pedestris的捕食导致了 45% 的若虫和 40% 的成虫死亡。这是Z. pedestris捕食M. bondari的第一个记录,可能是用于生物防治这种害虫的潜在物种。
