Abstract

This article provides information on the biology and ecology of Exochomus octosignatus (Gebler, 1830) and Exochomus undulatus Weise, 1878—species belonging to the genus Exochomus (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). These are myxoentomophagous insects that feed on pests found on trees in the mountainous and foothill areas and orchards of the Fergana Valley, specifically targeting Phytonomus larvae, spider mites, and the eggs and young larvae of butterflies.
