The journal of Toxicology and pest control is one of the series issued twice by the Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences, and is devoted to publication of original papers related to the interaction between insects and their environment. The goal of the journal is to advance the scientific understanding of mechanisms of toxicity. Emphasis will be placed on toxic effects observed at relevant exposures, which have direct impact on safety evaluation and risk assessment. The journal therefore welcomes papers on biology ranging from molecular and cell biology, biochemistry and physiology to ecology and environment, also systematics, microbiology, toxicology, hydrobiology, radiobiology and biotechnology. www.eajbs.eg.net Provided for non-commercial research and education use.

Metarhizium anisoplia was found No mortality observed at the highest concentration (4g/L) and the lowest tested concentration while the recommended concentration recorded mortality (0.1333±0.0908%) of B. brevicornis adult. While The recommended concentration (2g/L) of B. bassiana induced no mortality among the adult parasitoids while its highest tested concentration (4g/L) and the lowest concentration (1g/L) gave mortality (0.0667±.06667%) and (0.1333±0.0908%) respectively.
