Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on ladybird beetles, this volume delves into their biology and ecological role as predators of insect pests. It examines how their feeding habits influence development and body size, employing optimal foraging theory alongside field and lab studies. The author illustrates how both larvae and adults optimize energy intake and fitness. A simple predator-prey model is developed to analyze these dynamics, offering insights into effective biocontrol agents and enhancing understanding of predator-prey relationships.
