“…Despite encouraging laboratory results, few field and glasshouse studies have demonstrated a direct reduction of aphid numbers as a result of syrphid predation . Instead, most studies use the presence of syrphid eggs or adults as a proxy for predation under the assumption that a higher density of syrphids necessarily results in lower pest numbers. Of more concern, several studies have found that the number of syrphids in a field is too low or too variable to reduce pest numbers effectively .…”

“…Recent field studies have focused on attracting syrphid adults into crops by planting floral resources . Flowers such as buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum ), cornflower ( Centaurea cyanus ), alyssum ( Lobularia maritima) , coriander ( Coriandrum sativum ), and mint ( Mentha spicata ) are attractive to syrphid adults .…”
