A survey of aphid parasitoids and hyperparasitoids (Hymenoptera) on six crops in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq [PDF]
In this study, we surveyed aphids and associated parasitoid wasps from six important crop species (wheat, sweet pepper, eggplant, broad bean, watermelon and sorghum), collected at 12 locations in the Kurdistan region of Iraq.

Host size overrides maternal effects on the development of a secondary hyperparasitoid wasp. [PDF]
Offspring phenotype in most organisms is significantly mediated by genetically-based traits inherited from both parents. For instance, in many well-studied organisms, such as mammals, traits like body size and morphology are heritable and are passed on from one generation to the next. In invertebrates, such as arthropods, the situation is more complex,

Integrated taxonomy unveils new species of Trigonalyidae (Insecta, Hymenoptera) from Yunnan, China [PDF]
Trigonalyidae are rarely collected hyperparasitoids that attack the larvae of Ichneumonoidea, and Tachinidae associated with phytophagous sawfly or Lepidopteran larvae, or primary endoparasitoids of Vespidae larvae. Trigonalyidae mainly occur in tropical

New records of aphid parasitoids (Hymenoptera) from Colombia [PDF]
Aphid parasitoids have been recorded in many countries around the globe, however records in Colombia are few. Here, five primary parasitoids species, Aphidius platensis Brèthes, 1913, Aphidius funebris Mackauer, 1961, Aphidius matricariae ...

Host specialization of parasitoids and their hyperparasitoids on a pair of syntopic aphid species [PDF]
AbstractParasitoids of herbivorous insects have frequently evolved specialized lineages exploiting hosts occurring on different plants. This study investigated whether host specialization is also observed when closely related parasitoids exploit herbivorous hosts sharing the same host plant.
