摘要： Understanding predator-prey and predator-predator interactions is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of biocontrol agents and developing efficient pest management strategies. This study investigates the effects of prey species, predator life stage, and predator density on the predatory efficiency of the generalist predator Rhynocoris fuscipes (Fabricius) under semi-field conditions. Both the nymphs and adults of R. fuscipes consumed significantly more second-instar larvae of S. frugiperda than larvae of S. litura or M. separata. Notably, fifth-instar nymphs and adults exhibited higher predation capacity (11.75 +/- 0.37 and 10.90 +/- 0.40 larvae) than fourth-instar nymphs (9.05 +/- 0.29 larvae) on S. frugiperda. R. fuscipes demonstrated a Type II functional response at all developmental stages toward each prey species, and fifth-instar nymphs revealed higher attack rates (a = 1.5205 +/- 0.0544) on S. frugiperda; additionally, the handling time did not significantly differ among three prey species. It suggests that this predator may be more effective at controlling noctuid populations at low prey densities. As predator age and density increased, intraspecific competition among R. fuscipes also intensified. In a multi-prey system, R. fuscipes showed a marked preference for S. frugiperda over the other two prey species. These findings indicate that the fifth-instar nymphs and adults of R. fuscipes are particularly effective in suppressing early-instar larvae of the three noctuid pests, especially S. frugiperda, at low densities. This study enhances our understanding of the predation capacity and prey preference of R. fuscipes towards the three noctuid pests and provides a foundation for the development of more targeted and efficient pest management strategies using this predator.
