Biological Control of Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) in Argentina: Releases of Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) in Fruit-Producing Semi-Arid Areas of San Juan [PDF]
The Mediterranean fruit fly (Medfly), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) is one of the major pests of fruit crops in Argentina and it is a phytosanitary barrier to the export of fresh fruits.

Parasitoids such as Ganaspis brasiliensis and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae are being researched for biological control of Drosophila suzukii, an important agricultural pest. Parasitoids can be monitored in the field by collecting infested fruit samples or using sentinel traps seeded with host larvae/pupae.

Sperm Depletion and Mating Behavior in the Parasitoid Wasp \u3ci\u3eSpalangia Cameroni\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) [PDF]
Mating behavior was examined in the parasitoid wasp Spalangia cameroni. Males attempted copulation with both virgins and already mated females. Males attempted copulation regardless of whether they still had sperm. Already mated females rejected attempts

Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is a destructive crop pest native to Southeast Asia that recently invaded countries in Europe and North America, severely impacting commercial fruit production in its new host range. Here we report the results of a survey aimed at determining the presence of indigenous D.

The state of commercial augmentative biological control: plenty of natural enemies, but a frustrating lack of uptake [PDF]
Augmentative biological control concerns the periodical release of natural enemies. In com- mercial augmentative biological control, natural enemies are mass-reared in biofactories for release in large numbers to obtain an immediate control of pests. The

Spinosad was the most toxic active ingredient, in both laboratory bioassays and field trials. Cyantraniliprole resulted as the least toxic and selective one, but showed sublethal effects on longevity at LC30. Abstract Background G1 strain Ganaspis brasiliensis (Ihering) has been recently released in both Europe and America as a biological control agent
