A. aEffect of the insect growth regulator diflubenzuron on the predator Podisus nigrispinus (HeteropterabPentatomidae).h[electronic resource] c2012 aPodisus nigrispinus (Dallas) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is a common natural predator of defoliating caterpillars in agricultural and forest systems. Insecticides acting as growth regulators of insect pests can indirectly affect their predators through consumption of contaminated prey. We examined the reproductive performance of P. nigrispinus fed on caterpillars of Anticarsia gemmatalis Hu¤ bner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) reared on soybean leaves exposed to the chitin synthesis inhibitor, diflubenzuron. aAnticarsia Gemmatalis aHeteroptera aInseto aPredador aRegulador de Crescimento aAsopinae1 aLACERDA, M.
