189. Derived from: Legner, E. F. 1979. The relationship
between host destruction and parasite reproductive potential in Muscidifurax raptor, M. zaraptor, and Spalangia endius
[Chalcidoidea: Pteromalidae]. Entomophaga 24(2): 145-152. {NOTE: All Muscidifurax females regularly
superparasitize their hosts (i.e., deposit more than one egg on a host
pupa). However, in gregarious sibling species development
results in the survival of more than one individual to the adult stage. In solitary
species only a single individual survives to the adult
stage.} Summary Page 145 Page 146 Page 147 Page 148 Page 149 Figure 1-a Figure 1-b Figure 1-c Figure 2 |
