Molecular analysis reveals lowbush blueberry pest predation rates depend on ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) species and pest density

Molecular gut-content analysis allows determination of pest predation by field-collected predators. Ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) common in lowbush blueberries may consume blueberry spanworm, Itame argillacearia (Packard) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae), and blueberry flea beetle, Altica sylvia...
