Phyllobaenus dubius (Wolcott) (Coleoptera: Cleridae), a new record of a predator of the wheat stem sawfly (Hymenoptera: Cephidae)
Journal of the Kansas Entomological Society 74 (3), 181-183
Abstract: Phyllobaenus dubius (Wolcott) larvae and adults are predatory on larvae of the wheat stem sawfly, Cephus cinctus Norton. Some sawfly larvae are killed before host stems are cut. Phyllobaenus dubius larvae fed on sawfly larvae and survived to the adult stage in the laboratory.
