Prey consumption rate by natural enemies may be affected by the prey's host plant and prey density. The predation rate of the mite Neoseiulus cucumeris at different densities of first-instar Thrips tabaci larvae in the presence (onion) or absence (green plastic) of a host was measured. In the first experiment using a disc bioassay, N. cucumeris exhibited a type- II density-dependent functional response to prey on both disc types. Prey consumption was reduced on onion relative to plastic. A second experiment using onion bulbs and green plastic bulbs indicated a decrease in the consumption rate on plastic bulbs compared with plastic discs. The survival or recapture of N. cucumeris on onion bulbs was less than 7% and no prey consumption data were obtained. The results indicate that onion as a host plant has a negative effect on consumption of T. tabaci by N. cucumeris and on survival of the predator mite.
