Abstract
ABSTRACT: Tryphera lugubris (Meigen, 1824) (Diptera: Tachinidae) was reared from larvae of Arctia festiva (Hufnagel, 1766) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) feeding on yellow starthistle [Centaurea solstitialis L. (Asteraceae)] plants in Karacadag Mountain of Diyarbakır, Turkey. Arctia festiva was recorded for the first time as host of this parasitoid. Additionally, T. lugubris was recorded for the first time from Turkey. Some information on the host-parasitoid couple, and description of the parasitoid species, is also provided.
期刊介绍:
Contributions are accepted on any of the aspects of systematics and taxonomy of insects. This includes: taxonomic revisions, phylogenetics, biogeography and faunistics, and descriptive morphology of insects. Taxonomic papers describing single species are acceptable if such a study is sufficiently justified, however, comprehensive studies that provide a comparative, integrated study of insect systematics and taxonomy will get priority.
