Interactions among vegetable-infesting aphids, the fungal pathogen Metarhizium anisopliae (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) and the predatory coccinellid Cheilomenes lunata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

Entomopathogenic fungi are among biocontrol agents being considered for the control of aphids on a variety of crops.
