Entomophaga 42 (1/2), 41-47
Abstract: There are seven species of coccinellids known predators of aphids infesting on field crops in Japan. In Fukuoka Prefecture, three of them, Coccinella septempunctata brucki, Propylea japonica and Scymnus hoffmanni are known to occur, appearing from spring to autumn. Present study was carried out in the field to clarify the life histories of tree species of aphidophagous coccinellids.
