Uncovering Cryptic Parasitoid Diversity in Horismenus (Chalcidoidea, Eulophidae)

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Horismenus parasitoids are an abundant and understudied group of eulophid wasps found mainly in the New World. Recent surveys based on morphological analyses in Costa Rica have quadrupled the number of named taxa, with more than 400 species described so far.

Gall responses to drying habitats: Insights from the community of galling herbivores associated with the superhost Caryocar brasiliense Cambess. (Caryocaraceae)

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 924-938, April 2026.
Drying processes in the Brazilian palm swamps or Veredas, impact the gall community in adjacent vegetation by reducing the abundance of more sensitive galls, while more resilient galls acclimate to increased dryness by developing thicker protective tissues. Abstract Galls are new plant organs formed in response to the stimuli of gall‐inducing organisms,

Preliminary survey of indigenous parasites associated with Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae) in Jeju, Korea

open access: yesJournal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2015
In order to identify the parasitoids of Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton [commonly known as the citrus leafminer (CLM)], we collected CLM larvae and pupae in the Seogwipo area of Jeju-do, identified parasitoid species, and determined parasitism rates.

Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.
