• On the assessment of prey suitability in aphidophagous Coccinellidae (2005, background): “Thus, although A. spiraecola does not meet the requirement to be classified as an essential prey, it is clearly an adequate food for larvae and an important food source in both citrus (Michaud, 2003) and apple (Brown, 2004) where H. axyridis serves as a primary biological control agent.”
• Suitability of exotic and native lady beetle eggs (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) for development of lady beetle larvae (2004, unknown): “H. axyridis occurs withC.maculata on sweet corn (Musser et al., 2004),O. vnigrum in pecan and citrus orchards (Cottrell and Shapiro-Ilan, 2003; Michaud, 2003) and both C. maculata andO. v-nigrum in peach orchards (T.E. Cottrell, personal observation).”
• Assessing the trophic ecology of the Coccinellidae: Their roles as predators and as prey (2009, background): “non in coccinellids, but differs in important nutritional, selective, and evolutionary implications (Osawa, 2002; Michaud, 2003; Michaud and Grant, 2004; Omkar et al., 2006; Seagraves, 2009).”
• Adaptive Significance of Sibling Egg Cannibalism in Coccinellidae: Comparative Evidence from Three Species (2004, background): “This inference was further supported by C. sanguineaÕs faster larval development and superior survival on an exclusive diet of conspeciÞc eggs relative to Ephestia eggs, effects not observed in either H. axyridisorO.v-nigrum(Michaud2003).”
• The multicolored Asian lady beetle, Harmonia axyridis: A review of its biology, uses in biological control, and non-target impacts (2003, background): “It is interesting to note that the dark color morphs are rare in North America (e.g., LaMana and Miller, 1996), whereas in Asia, the dark morphs can be common (e.g., Dobzhansky, 1933).”
