Interactions between Bacillus thuringiensis and entomophagous insects
The interactions between insect pathogens, parasitoids, and predators have been proposed as “intraguild predation (IGP).” It occurs when two species share a host or prey (and therefore may compete) or when they engage in a trophic interaction with each ...

Augmentative releases of Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) for Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) control in a fruit-growing region of Argentina [PDF]
Field-open augmentative releases were conducted to assess the efficacy of Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Ashmead) for the regulation of Ceratitis capitata (Weidemann) infesting Ficus carica (L.) in a commercial area located in a fruit-producing irrigated ...

Annotated checklist and illustrated key to braconid parasitoids (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) of economically important fruit flies (Diptera, Tephritidae) in Brazil [PDF]
The braconid parasitoids of fruit-infesting flies have been more intensively studied from the middle to late 1990s, when taxonomic research was restarted in Brazil.
