Microsporidiosis of Tachinaephagus zealandicus Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) [PDF]
Memorias Do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002 An undescribed microsporidium was found infecting Tachinaephagus zealandicus, a gregarious parasitoid that attacks third instar larvae of muscoid flies. Spores were present in all body regions and in all stages of development. Infected adults contained an average of 3.75 x 10(5) spores, and the pathogen was vertically transmitted to progeny.

Status of Tachinaephagus zealandicus (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae), a larval parasitoid of muscoid flies, in the U.S. and Denmark [PDF]
Journal of Vector Ecology, 2014 Adults of the gregarious larval endoparasitoid Tachinaephagus zealandicus Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) were collected from two species of carrion-inhabiting flies, Phormia regina Meigen (Diptera: Calliphoridae) and Hydrotaea aenescens Wiedemann (Muscidae), associated with the burnt remains of a domesticated pig, Sus scrofa L. (Artiodactyla: Suidae)

Encontro do parasitóide Tachinaephagus zealandicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) em pupas de Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) em carcaça de rato [PDF]
Arquivo Brasileiro De Medicina Veterinaria E Zootecnia, 2006 This study reports the occurrence of Tachinaephagus zealandicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) parasitizing pupae of Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) associated with a decomposing rat carcass in a secondary wood area in Campinas, SP. The parasitism rate was 91.8%.

Similar Is Not the Same – Mate Recognition in a Parasitoid Wasp
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Finding and recognizing a suitable mate is a key prerequisite to reproductive success. Insects often recognize prospective mates using chemical cues and signals. Among these, cuticular lipids commonly serve for mate recognition at close range.

De novo biosynthesis of linoleic acid is widespread in parasitic wasps
Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 107, Issue 2, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Linoleic acid (C18:2∆9,12, LA) is an important metabolite with numerous essential functions for growth, health, and reproduction of organisms. It has long been assumed that animals lack ∆12‐desaturases, the enzymes needed to produce LA from oleic acid (C18:1∆9, OA).
