Span of Female Emergence and Male Sperm Depletion in the Female-biased, Quasi-gregarious Parasitoid, Pachycrepoideus vindemiae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1985
The capacity of a single Pachycrepoideus vindemiae (Rondani) male to inseminate his sisters adequately in a brood was tested. Ten matings in rapid succession depleted the male's sperm; we found this by alternately examining dissected spermathecae from some females and determining the number of fertilized eggs (daughters) produced by the remaining ...

Host‐feeding and egg maturation by Pachycrepoideus vindemiae

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1993
AbstractPachycrepoideus vindemiae Rondani (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is a facultative hyperparasitoid of Drosophila parasitoids in Europe. Female P. vindemiae host‐feed from the same hosts into which they lay eggs and this enables them to mature additional eggs. P.

Performance of Two Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) Pupal Parasitoids (Coptera haywardi [Hymenoptera: Diapriidae] and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae [Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae]) under Different Environmental Soil Conditions

Biological Control, 2002
We evaluated the performance of Coptera haywardi (Ogloblin) (Diapriidae) and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae (Rondani) (Pteromalidae), both hymenopteran pupal parasitoids of Anastrepha spp. (Diptera: Tephritidae). Performance was studied by manipulating the following environmental conditions in the laboratory: (1) soil type, (2) soil moisture content, (3 ...

Host Selection and Sex Allocation By Pachycrepoideus Vindemiae Rondani (Pteromalidae) as a Facultative Hyperparasitoid of Asobara Tabida Nees (Braconidae; Alysiinae) and Leptopilina Heterotoma (Cynipoidea; Eucoilidae)

Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 1982
1) Pachycrepoideus vindemiae Rondami, a pupal parasitoid of Drosphila, accepts puparia containing any stage of the larval parasitoids Asobara tabida Nees and Leptopilina heterotoma (Thomson) in experiments in which it could choose between equal number of puparia containing uparasitized Drosophila pupae and puparia containing some stage of the larval ...

Brachymeria lasus and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae: Sterol requirements during larval growth of two hymenopterous insect parasites reared in vitro on chemically defined media

Experimental Parasitology, 1981
Abstract Brachymeria lasus and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae failed to develop in vitro on sterol-free artificial media, and dietary acetate and squalene failed to maintain and/or support growth. The sterols, cholesterol, cholestanol, β-sitosterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, and cholesterol linoleate were all utilized and maintained larvae of both species ...

Male Courtship Patterns and Female Receptivity Signal of Pteromalinae (Hym., Pteromalidae), With a Consideration of Some Evolutionary Trends and a Comment On the Taxonomic Position of Pachycrepoideus Vindemiae

Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 1973
Courtship behaviour of a number of species of Pteromalinae (Hym., Pteromalidae) was observed (species are listed in Table I). This paper is a preliminary report about the general properties of courtship in this group of chalcids. Pteromaline males court from a frontal position on the female, the male's front feet being placed on the female's head ...
