Abstract:tea-citrus intercropping tea plantations; (4) the total abundance in the Anjibaicha tea-snakegourd intercropping plantation was the best, followed by Anjibaicha tea-snakegourd, Wuniuzao tea-waxberry, pure Wuniuzao tea, and Wuniuzao tea-citrus intercropping plantations; (5) the ratio of beneficial to harmful individuals in the Anjibaicha tea-snakegourd intercropping plantation was the best, whilst the ratio of pure Wuniuzao tea plantation of the Wuniuzao tea-citrus intercropping plantation was the least. It was considered that: (1) the intercropping expanded the space, distracted insects and spiders to tea plants, and raised the total individuals; (2) the volatiles from intercrop plants can influence the behavior of insects and spiders, the intercropping of snakegourd with tea plants attracted the most pests and natural enemies, while the intercropping of citrus with tea plants resulted in the least total abundance in tea plantation; (3) the intercrop regulated the ratio of the beneficial to harmful organisms, and the proper intercrop can be used for suppressing pests.
