Bacterial and fungal symbionts in parasitoid wasp genera Nasonia and Muscidifurax
, 2023 Jewel wasps in the Nasonia genus are ideal models for insect genetics, genomics, epigenetics, development, and evolution. Wasps in the Muscidifurax genus have a close evolutionary relationship to the model parasitoid genus Nasonia.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 1, Page 49-59, January 2025.This study investigated the parasitism rate over time of Spalangia cameroni (Hymenoptera: Spalangiidae) and Muscidifurax zaraptor (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), commonly used biocontrol agents of the house fly, Musca domestica (Diptera: Muscidae). The parasitisation rate of S. cameroni remained constant over time, whereas that of M.

Effect of Host Decoys on the Ability of the ParasitoidsMuscidifurax raptorandSpalangia cameroni(Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) to Parasitize House Fly (Diptera: Muscidae) Puparia [PDF]
Florida Entomologist, 2017 The pteromalid pupal parasitoids Muscidifurax raptor Girault & Sanders and Spalangia cameroni Perkins (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) are commonly released on livestock farms for management of house flies, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae). To be effective, parasitoids must be able to locate live host puparia in complex environments that may include ...

Individual and Combined Releases ofMuscidifurax raptorandM. raptorellus(Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) as a Biological Control Tactic Targeting House Flies in Dairy Calf Facilities [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2012 The impact of commercially reared house fly parasitoids released into nine dairy calf coverall facilities were evaluated over 3 yr. Individual and equally mixed ratios of the pteromalid parasitoids Muscidifurax raptor Girault and Saunders and M.

Relationships Between Temperature and Life History Parameters ofMuscidifurax raptorellus(Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) [PDF]
Environmental Entomology, 2000 The effect of temperature on the life history of Muscidifurax raptor Girault & Sanders was determined to develop relationships that could be used to improve simulation models of biological control. Immature developmental rates were influenced by temperature and sex.
