Abstract
S. rueppelli is primarily predator and it occupies the third level of the food chain (tobacco - M. persicae - S. rueppelli).
In laboratory conditions, larvae of this species consume 280-321 aphids of M. persicae. Their voracity increases in the second, and especially in the third larval stage. Investigated hoverfly has a high biological potential, high percentage of survival and short period of growth. This species has an important role in biological control of aphids in natural agroecosystems.
