Abstract

Psyllaephagus trioziphagus (Howard, 1885) was first observed feeding from Mastigimas anjosi Burckhardt et al., 2011 immatures, with just one parasitoid on each insect. This parasitoid was previously reported from Canada to Brazil. Although it is not host-specific, it may be a useful agent to control M. anjosi in Brazil.
