This research will examine local adaptation of Orius spp., common omnivores which are native to California and commonly used for biological control in a variety of agricultural systems. The work done between reserves will be to determine if specialization is observed between host plant species, and how likely local adaptation is based on the predictability of the habitat. This work will support theoretical and lab-based experiments examining the influence of host selection on local adaptation.
