Host-Plant Selection by Phytophagous Insects
The fact that oligophagous species are deterred by more plants than
polyphagous species implies that they are deterred by more chemicals. This
proves to be true, not because there is a qualitative difference in the types of
chemicals that ...

Introduction to Insect Pest Management
Prey selection by adult predators ranges from highly selective (monophagous or
oligophagous) to comparatively broad (polyphagous). There is considerable
debate over the importance of generalist versus more specialized predators in ...
Robert L. Metcalf, William H. Luckmann, 1994
On the basis of host habitation, insects are grouped into three categories,
monophagous, oligophagous and polyphagous. Insects, which may live on one
taxonomic unit only are designated as oligophagous. On the other hand, insects
which ...

Biological Invasions in New Zealand
Although no polyphagous species have ever been introduced as biocontrol
agents against weeds, a range of monophagous and oligophagous herbivorous
species have been used (Table 10.1; Fowler et al.2000).Table 10.1 shows that ...

Simmonds and Blaney (1993) found that polyphagous species were not as
sensitive to the effects of azadirachtin as oligophagous species within the same
order and family of insects. In this study both the feeding responses to
azadirachtin ...

Interrelationship Between Insects and Plants

Introduction to Ecological Biochemistry
Oligophagous insects, probably making up the majority of phytophagous insects,
are those which feed on a relatively few related species belonging to one or only
a few plant genera or families. They are selective in their feeding, being guided ...
