• Searching and reproductive behaviour of female aphidophagous ladybirds (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae): a review (2003, background): “…local aphid populations of high density are typically both unpredictable and ephemeral in their occurrence, and ladybird adults exploiting these prey must consequently be highly mobile in moving frequently from opportunity to opportunity (e.g., Hagen, 1962; Evans & Youssef, 1992; Osawa, 2000).”
• The Multicoloured Asian Ladybird Harmonia axyridis Pallas (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), a threat for native aphid predators in Belgium? (2003, background): “• has strong dispersal capacities and undertakes long range migrations to overwintering sites (19-21).”
• The multicolored Asian lady beetle, Harmonia axyridis: A review of its biology, uses in biological control, and non-target impacts (2003, background): “H. axyridis appears to have a high ability to track aphid populations in space and time (Osawa, 2000, With et al., 2002).”
• The Effect of the Area and Configuration of Hibernation Sites on the Control of Aphids by Coccinella septempunctata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) in Agricultural Landscapes: A Simulation Study (2003, background): “However, lady beetlesmayßybetweenorwithin foraging habitats at a scale of at least 50 m (Osawa 2000).”
• Invasion history, habitat preferences and phenology of the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis in Belgium (2008, background): “Harmonia axyridis is known to have strong dispersal capacities (Koch 2003; Osawa 2000) and studies in North America have shown that it can rapidly colonise large areas (Tedders and Schaefer 1994).”
• Soybean Aphid Predators and Their Use in Integrated Pest Management (2004, background): “H.axyridis is retainedbyconcentrations of aphids, and these increased retention times have been shown to result in population level aggregations (Osawa 2000).”
• The harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis: global perspectives on invasion history and ecology (2016, background): “Other southern African countries with records of H. axyridis are Lesotho (first record June 2008, Stals 2010) and Swaziland (first record November 2013, Stals unpublished), and the ladybird has likely established in both these countries.”
• Decline in native ladybirds in response to the arrival of Harmonia axyridis: early evidence from England (2011, background): “axyridis successfully tracks prey seasonally within a heterogeneous habitat (Osawa, 2000).”
• Model evaluation of the function of prey in non-crop habitats for biological control by ladybeetles in agricultural landscapes (2004, unknown): “Minimum area requirement for habitat improvement for ladybeetles would be at least in the order of hundreds of meters given their capacity to fly between foraging habitats (Osawa, 2000).”
• The global spread of Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae): distribution, dispersal and routes of invasion (2011, background): “…in many coccinellids (Banks 1956; Carter and Dixon 1982; Nakamuta 1982, 1984, 1985; Osawa 2000), and H. axyridis is highly effective at resource tracking, which enables it to maintain stable populations in temporally and spatially heterogeneous habitats and in pursuit of its prey (Osawa 2000).”
• The potential impacts of the arrival of the harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), in Britain (2006, unknown): “Although considered bivoltine in much of Asia (Sakurai et al., 1992; Osawa, 2000), North America (LaMana & Miller, 1996; Koch & Hutchison, 2003), and Europe (Ongagna et al.”
