This study provides evidence on integrating the morphological, field, and laboratory data, and application of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) barcoding gene to the three asexual or sexual Lysiphlebus spp., i.e., Lysiphlebus cardui (Marshall), Lysiphlebus confusus Tremblay and Eady and Lysiphlebus fabarum (Marshall) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae). New aphid- invasive plant associat...

Melanaphis sorghi (Theobald, 1904) is an invasive species recently introduced in the American continent and has been causing great losses sorghum crop. In surveys carried out cities of Uberlândia Sete Lagoas, state Minas Gerais, Brazil, during year 2021, mummified specimens M. were collected on plants, from which parasitoid Aphidius platensis (Brèthes, 1913) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae...

Colonies of Trioxys pallidus Haliday (Hymenoptera: Aphidiidae) were collected from California walnut orchards during 1985-86 and screened for variability of responses to azinphosmethyl. Variability was found and laboratory selection was initiated with four colonies. All colonies responded to selection; after 7 to 12 selections, three colonies were combined (Select colony) and selection was cond...

Aphid parasitoids of the subfamily Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) of northeastern Iran were studied in this paper. A total of 29 species are keyed and illustrated with line drawings. The aphidiines presented in this work have been reared from 42 aphid host taxa occurring on 49 plant taxa from a total of 33 sampling sites. Sixty-six aphidiine-aphid-plant associations are presented. Trioxys...

Here we present additional data on the Aphidiinae fauna of Kyrgyzstan. We identified 18 species. One species new to science ( Trioxys depressus sp. nov. ) is described, while 11 are reported for first time: Aphidius avenae Haliday, A. ervi matricariae salicis urticae Ephedrus cerasicola Starý, E. niger Gautier, Bonnamour & Gaumont, Lysiphlebus cardui (Marshall), L. confusus Tremblay Ead...

the aphidiine parasitoids (hym., braconidae) attacking the pest aphids on various pome and stone fruit trees in different parts of iranwere studied. a total of 13 species belonging to seven genera of aphid parasitoids were identified in association with 17 aphid species on 10 different species of fruit trees. sixty nine tritrophic associations were detected from the studied area of which 25 ass...

in the current study, the information on occurrence, distribution and host aphid-plant associations for the species of praon haliday in iran are presented. eight species of praon were found in the areas under study, which include four previously reported species, viz. praon absinthi bignell, praon barbatum mackauer, praon exsoletum (nees) and praon volucre (haliday), and four new records, praon...
