摘要
The olfactory orientation of the aphidophagous ladybird Coccinella septempunctata L. was assessed in a Y-tube olfactometer and a choice arena. The response of the predator to 22 plants, aphid prey and conspecifics was tested. The ladybird was attracted to the odour of chopped Berberis vulgaris L. leaves, and of Tripleurospermum inodoratum (L.) Sch.-Bip. flowerheads, and males were attracted to females. Methanol extracts of B. vulgaris leaves were also attractive.
