  1. Studies on Conura torvina (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae) Reproduction and biology in Relation to Hosts in Brassica Crops

    … (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and was found as a hyperparasite of Cotesia rubecula (Marshall) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and several other parasitoid species. Cotesia rubecula was introduced into Virginia in 1987 as a biological control agent for Pieris rapae (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), and …

    … parasite of the imported cabbageworm. Four hyperparasites, two of them attacking both~. glomerata and~. rubecula, were found in field plots from 1986-1988. The level of hyperparasitization for the two primary parasites was significantly different. Hyperparasitization averaged only 8.1% for …

  3. Seasonal abundance and biology of hyperparasites and their hosts associated with Pieris rapae (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) in the Brassica crop system

    … goal of the study was to determine whether the hyperparasites attacking the larval parasites of P. rapae were capable of eliminating an introduced population of the larval parasite Cotesia rubecula (Marshall) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). Pieris rapae was found to be active from April to November …
