Popis: | Tamarixia bicolor Mercet (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae: Tetrastichinae) was collected in Israel for the first time in 2015. Heterotrioza sahlbergi (Šulc) (Hemiptera: Triozidae) is now reported as a new host record for this parasitoid. This psyllid species was found in Israel in 1992, feeding on Atriplex spp. (Amaranthaceae). A study of T. bicolor on this host, including dissections of parasitized immatures of H. sahlbergi, has revealed it to be a solitary nymphal endoparasitoid. |
