Prey Seeking Behavior of Insect and Mite Predators

Author(s) Sourav Chakrabarty, Rittik Sarkar

Abstract The foundation of integrated pest management (IPM) practices is biological control, and natural enemies are a more and more appealing option. A common class of invertebrate natural enemies utilized as bio-control agents is the insect and mite predators. In recent years, traditional methods of biological control have become less important than the preservation and management of naturally occurring predators in agricultural eco-systems. However, these strategies must be supported by a fundamental understanding of the ecology and prey selection behavior of the predatory species being used. Prey Habitat Selection, Prey Finding, Prey Acceptance, and Prey Suitability—these four components of prey seeking behavior—have been covered in this study. To find and identify their prey, predators respond to both semiochemical and physical inputs. Prey sex pheromones, which work as kairomones, or Herbivore Induced Plant Volatiles (HIPV), which operate as allomones or synomones, are responsible for these reactions. Other aspects of prey seeking behaviour, such as plant architecture, patch quality, the chemical makeup of the prey cuticle, etc. are also discussed. All together affect the foraging efficiency of natural enemies.
