Perhaps the most important novel findings concern the mediation of individual life-history steps by semiochemical substances (chapters 5.4 and 9 of the book). While fifteen years ago most authors considered foraging for prey and finding place for oviposition as completely random, there is now much laboratory evidence that ladybirds\u2019 behaviour can be guided by olfactory signals, represented by semiochemical molecules. Quite a breakthrough has been the discovery of oviposition deterrence by larval trails, as this gives us the insight into the adaptive decision-making by females, something that was previously quite a mystery. This adaptive inhibition prevents cannibalism of eggs by the larvae and enables dispersion of eggs to free patches of prey. However, field essays on the action of specific volatile substances are still largely missing, and also the research on their mutual interference (synergy vs. inhibition)." . "561"^^ . .
