• Intraguild predation involving Harmonia axyridis: a review of current knowledge and future perspectives (2008, background): “Avoidance behaviour of parasitoids and coccinellids in relation to other intraguild predators is common (Nakashima et al. 2004; Meyling and Pell 2006; Ormond 2007).”
• Insect pathogens as biological control agents: Back to the future. (2015, background): “…and Brandenburg, 2005), and in some 1214 instances, insects may be attracted or repelled by fungal volatiles or metabolites which could 1215 enhance or deter activity (Villani et al., 1994; Engler and Gold, 2004; Kepler and Bruck, 2006; 1216 Meyling and Pell, 2006c; Rohlfs and Churchill, 2011).”
• Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology (2009, background): “Behavioral avoidance of entomopathogenic fungi also has been reported for various insects: B. bassiana is avoided by Anthocoris nemorum (Meyling & Pell 2006) and C. septempunctata (Ormond et al. in prep.)”
• Entomopathogenic fungi as biological controllers: New insights into their virulence and pathogenicity (2012, background): “Behavioral avoidance of entomopathogenic fungi has also been reported for various insects: B. bassiana is avoided by Anthocoris nemorum (Meyling and Pell, 2006), while Coptotermes lacteus avoids M. anisopliae (Staples and Milner, 2000).”
• Entomopathogenic fungi and insect behaviour: from unsuspecting hosts to targeted vectors (2010, background): “ Meyling and Pell (2006) found that whilst the generalist aphid predator Anthocoris nemorum (L.) avoided leaf surfaces contaminated with B. bassiana and rapidly withdrew from contact with B. bassiana-sporulating cadavers, its behaviour on soil was not altered by the presence of the fungus.”
