A New Experimental Setup to Study the Olfactory Behaviour of Trichogramma Egg Parasitoids

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We developed an experimental setup to assess odor‐induced egg‐laying behavior in tiny egg‐parasitoid wasps. This Y‐shaped olfactometer, coupled with an AI‐based image‐recognition model, automatically quantifies egg parasitism by Trichogramma wasps. Olfactory‐driven egg‐laying preferences were analyzed using Bayesian inference.

Impact of Host and Food Availability on Life‐History Traits in Six Egg Parasitoid Species of the Genus Trichogramma

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study we measured the impact of access to sugar and hosts on the longevity and fecundity of six Trichogramma species: T. cacoeciae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. leptoparameron, T. pintoi and T. sibericum. The impact of food differed among species, but there was a general tendency of increased life expectancy and potential fecundity with sugar ...

Laboratory Biology, Immature and Adult Morphology of Trichopria drosophilae (Perkins) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae), Parasitoids of Drosophila Flies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

The Parasitoid Wasp Glyptapanteles porthetriae Induces a Photoperiod‐Dependent Diapause‐Like State in Its Potential Overwintering Host Lasiocampa quercus

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We evaluated Lasiocampa quercus as an overwintering host for the koinobiont larval endoparasitoid Glyptapanteles porthetriae by exposing parasitized larvae to different environmental conditions and comparing parasitoid development with that in the primary host Lymantria dispar.

Performance of Leptopilina japonica Novković and Kimura (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) Under Fluctuating Temperature and Humidity

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Temperature is an important factor to determine the activity of insects. We tested the performance of the non‐native larval parasitoid Leptopilina japonica (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) under realistic climatic conditions to improve understanding about its ongoing spread and seasonal abundance.
