DOI: 10.1080/03235408.2020.1743537
Abstract: Abstract Due to the recent entrance of Harmonia axyridis to Iran necessitates elucidating the survival, development, and predation rate of the predator more fully. Therefore, the age-stage, two-sex life table and the stage-specific predation rate… read more here.
