A NEW EGG-PARASITE OF THE PERIODICAL CICADA
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
The Chalcidid subfamily Trichogrammatinae is composed entirely of species parasitic in the eggs of other insects. A synopsis of the genera has recently been published by Dr.Chr. Aurivillius in “Entomologisk Tidskrift,” for 1897, pp.249–256, apropos to the establishment of a new genus (Oophthora) for a species which he has reared in Sweden from the eggs of Semblidis lutariae. In this synopsis of the genera Dr. Aurivillius makes Lathromeris, Förster (Hymenopt. Stud., 1856, 2, pp. 87–89) a synonym of Chaetostricha, Haliday (An. and Mag. Nat. Hist. Ser. 2, Vol. 7, 1851, p.212).
