The use of Telenomus remus (Nixon, 1937) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) in the management of Spodoptera spp.: potential, challenges and major benefits [PDF]
Spodoptera frugiperda (Smith, 1797) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), also known as fall armyworm (FAW) is a polyphagous pest which can cause significant losses and is considered a global threat to different crops and a risk to food security. Currently, in maize,

Improving Telenomus remus (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) Adoption: Contribution of Different Egg Parasitoid Densities, Fed Adults, and Their Storage for Successful Biological Control of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]
Egg parasitoids, such as Telenomus remus (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae), face significant challenges after release, as their pupae are exposed to various mortality factors that reduce the efficiency of biological control programs. Therefore, this study aimed

Telenomus remus is parasitoid on many Lepidpoteran. Morphological analysis on T. remus is important to understand their behavior and assest the quality of parasitoid comes from the mass rearing process. However, the information of T. remus body setae cuticle characteristics were limited. This study aimed to explore the body setae on the mesonotum of of

Dispersal capacity of the egg parasitoid Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) in maize and soybean crops [PDF]
Abstract This study examined the dispersal capacity of the parasitoid Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) in soybean and maize crops. Knowledge on mobility and dispersal capacity of parasitoids is crucial for the implementation of successful biological control strategies using this biological control agent.
