Characterising the north-western European species of Phaenoglyphis Förster, 1869 (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Charipinae) with novel insights from DNA barcode data [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal
The taxonomy of the hymenopteran parasitoid subfamily Charipinae (Hymenoptera: Cynipoidea: Figitidae) has, until recently, been in a state of chaos. While this situation has improved significantly in recent years, most of the efforts were focused on ...

Revision of Argentinian species of Hexacola Foerster (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Eucoilinae) [PDF]

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 2015
The eucoiline genus Hexacola Foerster, 1869 is present in the Afrotropical, Neotropical, Holarctic and Ethiopian regions, as well as Oceania. In this paper, three species are reported for the first time in Argentina: Hexacola hexatoma (Hartig 1841 ...

Widespread establishment of adventive populations of Leptopilina japonica (Hymenoptera, Figitidae) in North America and development of a multiplex PCR assay to identify key parasitoids of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera, Drosophilidae) [PDF]

NeoBiota
In recent years, there has been an increase in the adventive establishment and spread of parasitoid wasps outside of their native range. However, lack of taxonomic tools can hinder the efficient screening of field-collected samples to document the ...

<i>Wolbachia</i>-mediated parthenogenesis induction in the aphid hyperparasitoid <i>Alloxysta brevis</i> (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Charipinae). [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol
Thelytokous parthenogenesis (thelytoky), in which females can produce female offspring without mating, can be caused by parthenogenesis-inducing endosymbiotic bacteria in the genus Wolbachia.

Seasonal phenology and host plant use by Leptopilina japonica (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) attacking Drosophila (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in managed and unmanaged habitats, determined using a modified sticky trap collection method. [PDF]

J Econ Entomol
Biological control of Drosophila suzukii may be enhanced through adventive populations of the figitid parasitoid Leptopilina japonica (Novković & Kimura) (Hymenoptera: Figitidae).

Temporal fluctuations and geographic distributions of Leptopilina (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) species in North Carolina: implications for biological control of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae). [PDF]

J Econ Entomol
Biological control is an important component of integrated pest management programs. This can include classical biological control agents, but also adventive biological control agents that naturally established.

Reliable mass production of Ganaspis kimorum (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), a larval parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae). [PDF]

J Insect Sci
Spotted wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), native to Asia, has become a significant threat to soft fruit crops globally. To develop a classical biological control program for this pest, the obligate parasitoid Ganaspis kimorum (Buffington ...
