“…Chrysoperla carnea is a polyphagous predator that has played a key role in population reduction of many soft bodied pests, especially sucking insect pests including mealybugs (Fazlullah et al, 2017;Sajjad et al, 2021). Accordingly, in the study undertaken, all the C. carnea larval instars showed their predatory potential on various life stages of P. marginatus with significant differences among individual instars.…”

Purpose: Considering the predatory effectiveness of Chrysoperla carnea (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae), studies were carried out at National Agricultural Research Centre, Islamabad, Pakistan to determine the feeding potential and developmental period of its larval instars on Paracoccus marginatus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae).Research Method: Eggs, 1 st , 2 nd , and 3 rd nymphal instars and adults of P. marginatus were provided to all three larval instars of C. carnea in a Completely Randomized Design experiment, replicated ten times. Findings:Results indicated that all C. carnea larval instars were found to feed on all P. marginatus stages.

“…It has been suggested that the differences in the mean consumption of various life stages of P. marginatus by C. carnea larval instar may be due to their size, and handling of their hosts in addition to their nutritional requirements (Rashid et al, 2012;Sajjad et al, 2021).…”
