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

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 ...

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.

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.
