- Vineyard managers and researchers seek sustainable solutions for mealybugs, a changing pest complex (2008, background): “They have waxlike filaments similar to those of mealybugs and this “camouflage” allows beetle larvae to feed amongst mealybugs without too much disturbance from mealybug-tending ants ( Daane et al. 2007 ).”
- Coccinellids in Biological Control (2012, unknown): “The larvae of C. montrouzieri produce copious wax fi laments that mimic those of mealybugs and enable them to forage effectively in the presence of tending ants that may attack other predators and parasitoids (Daane et al. 2007 ).”
