The link between food and reproduction in aphidophagous predators: a case study with Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
For polyphagous predators, the link between food consumption and reproduction is not always straightforward, and instead may reflect that even predators with very broad diets may have reproductive tactics that are tied to consumption of a restricted range of prey. We studied the consumption and use...
