Sunil, J., Ballal, C.R, Rao, N.S., & Joshi, S. 2001 Influence of temperature on biological, predatory and reproductive attributes of Sticholotis cribellata Sicard (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) on Melanaspis glomerata Green.. Annals of Plant Protection Sciences 9(1): 26-31.

Notes: The influence of temperature on the development, survival, fecundity and predatory potential of Sticholotis cribellata was studied on Melanaspis glomerata. Ability of the predator to multiply faster and survive longer at 26°C can be exploited during early infestation levels of M. glomerata when the temperature ranges from 26 to 28°C.
