• Nectar accessibility determines fitness, flower choice and abundance of hoverflies that provide natural pest control (2016, background): “The plant species included in the tests were in the first instance selected on the basis of reported visitation by hoverflies in general (Colley & Luna 2000; Tooker, Hauser & Hanks 2006).”
• Diversification Practices: Their Effect on Pest Regulation and Production (2008, unknown): “Colley and Luna (2000) studied the effect of 11 different flowering plants on the presence of aphidophagous hoverflies (Syrphidae) giving an example of how a screening process for a flowering plant takes place.”
• Pick and Mix: Selecting Flowering Plants to Meet the Requirements of Target Biological Control Insects (2012, background): “In the study by Colley and Luna (2000) , featuring 11 plant species, alyssum, buckwheat and mustard were highly visited, but here the most visits were recorded on coriander ( Coriandrum sativum (L.)).”
• Maximizing ecosystem services from conservation biological control: the role of habitat management. (2008, unknown): “13 Colley and Luna (2000) 10 1 7 4 + + + + S L, O, S Agronomic”
• Secondary plants used in biological control: A review (2012, background): “Insectary plants are introduced into agricultural or horticultural systems to increase the amounts of nectar and pollen resources required by some natural enemies of pests ( Table 1 ; Bugg 1990 , 1994 ; Colley and Luna 2000 ).”
• Effect of ground-cover management on spider mites and their phytoseiid natural enemies in clementine mandarin orchards (II): Top-down regulation mechanisms (2011, background): “The use of plants to encourage beneficial insects is based on the fact that many predatory and adult parasitic arthropods benefit from feeding on nectar and/or pollen (Smith, 1960; Liang and Huang, 1994; Colley and Luna, 2000; Berndt and Wratten, 2005).”
• Attractiveness of common insectary and harvestable floral resources to beneficial insects (2011, background): “Ideally, the flowering plant should bloom early in the crop cycle to attract natural enemies before pest damage occurs (Colley and Luna, 2000).”
• Floral Host Plants of Syrphidae and Tachinidae (Diptera) of Central Illinois (2006, background): “T. marginatus is distributed throughout the United States, can be an important pollinator (Morse 1981, Scribailo and Posluszny 1984), and may be encouraged to suppress aphid infestation by providing insectary plants (Bugg and Dutcher 1989, Colley and Luna 2000).”
• The effects of floral understoreys on parasitism of leafrollers (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) on apples in New Zealand (2006, background): “Alyssum also attracted high numbers of hover flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) in recent comparisons of candidate ‘insectary’ plants in the U.S.A. (Colley & Luna, 2000).”
