| مستخلص: |
Pediobius furvus (Gahan) (Eulophidae: Hymenoptera) was recorded as a new pupal parasitoid (gregarious endo-parasitoid) of Sesamia cretica pupae (Led.) in El-Noubaria region (El-Beheira Governorate), Egypt. This study was conducted in maize and sorghum fields in El-Beheira and Giza Governorates in Egypt during 1994 and 1995. The percentage parasitism was 8.4 and 15.4% in August and September, respectively. The number of parasitoids emerging from one pupa ranged from 28 to 222. It has been concluded that this new species is a gregarious endo-parasitoid that pupates inside its host. Pediobius furvus has a high reproductive ability, which may afford mass production and enable mass release of the parasitoid to control S. cretica in maize fields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
