During the study period, 6 species of ladybirds were recorded, belonging to 6 genera and from different plant families, the frequency rate of the species was as follows: <em>Coccinella septempunctata<\/em>,; <em>Coccinella novemnotata<\/em>,; <em>Coccinella undecimpunctata<\/em>,; <em>Hippodamia tredecimpunctata,<\/em>; <em>Stethorus<\/em> spp.; <em>Harmonia<\/em> spp. The host plant of each species of insects; main preys and environmental conditions (temperature; relative humidity) for each station of study were recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: Ladybird, predators, <em>Coccinella, Stethorus, Harmonia<\/em>, Basrah, Iraq.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times; font-size: 17px;\">Full paper in English: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v9n6p33.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shurooq Abdullah Najim(1)*, Hussain Ali Mahdi(2), and Dawod Salman Hamid(2) (1)Department of Ecology, College of\u00a0 Science , University of Basrah , Iraq.
