Spotted Cucumber Beetle

Spotted cucumber beetle is a major agricultural pest of North America. Another name for the spotted cucumber beetle is “southern corn rootworm”. Many Diabrotica species cause damage to field crops, especially corn, making these beetles a major agricultural concern. Because of the subterranean nature of their larvae, these insects are hard and expensive to control.

Evidence of 58 predation events by Phidippus audax (Hentz) was obtained during 17–31 October 1986 from a 0.1 ha old field site that included cotton in the Delta of Mississippi. Three crop pest species accounted for 60% of the prey records: tarnished plant bug (TPB) (22%), spotted cucumber beetle (SCB) (22%), and three-cornered alfalfa hopper (TAH) (16%). Censuses (35) of cotton at this site indicated that the most abundant potential prey, SCB, had one of the lowest capture rates by P. audax, 1.9%. Other spiders as a group were captured at a rate of 11.4%, TAH at a rate of 10.2%, and TPB at a rate of 4.3%. Considering the total potential arthropod prey population, P. audax consumed approximately 3.3% during a 2-week period. Predation by P. audax usually occurred between 1030 and 1500 hours, with 7.6% of the P. audax population expected to be consuming prey at any one time. It is estimated that in late-season habitats P. audax may remove ca. 10% of the TPB population every 1–2 weeks.
