Chartocerus hyalipennis (Hayat) (Hym: Signiphoridae), a gregarious hyperparasitoid on mealybugs (Hom.: pseudococcidae): biology and host range in west Africa
The biology and behaviour of the signiphorid Chartocerus hyaipennis (HAYAT) were studied in the laboratory on Epidinocarsis lopezi (DE SANTlS), a parasitoid of the cassava mealybug Phenacoccus manihoti MATlLE-FERRERO. Only mummified secondary hosts, i.e. mealybugs, were accepted for ovi-position. Ho...
