The community of natural enemies that inhabits agroecosystems is
complex mainly due to multiple trophic interactions established
among them and their target prey/hosts. Several factors can
influence the efficiency of natural enemies as biological control
agents, such as the occurrence of preferred food items,
supplementary food resources, shelters, agricultural practices or
landscapes. In this book, scientists present recent studies in
regards to the identification, protection strategies and impacts of
agricultural practices on important groups of natural enemies. This
core focus includes specific studies on predatory species (e.g.,
mites, spiders, anthocorids, nabids, carabids, and coccinellids) as
well as parasitoid species (hymenopterans). The different chapters
present new approaches towards the conservation of natural enemies
in agroecosystems, and discuss the effects of climate change and
agricultural practices on biodiversity, life history and movement
of natural enemies.
