“…For both generations, the parasitoid laid more eggs when the host eggs were provided within the first 24 h (Table 6). These results are in accordance with other studies showing that T. evanescens laid more eggs in the first 24 h (Achiri et al 2020). It is known that the mean number of eggs laid per female generally decreases over time or with the age of the parasitoid (Reznik et al 2009).…”

“…Emergence rates were recorded by counting emergence holes from black eggs. Since T. evanescens can lay most of their eggs in 2 days (Achiri et al 2020), the experiments were concluded after 48 h. To determine longevity, all alive individuals were kept unfed in the same tubes and checked 2 times a day to count dead individuals. For F1 generation experiments, following the adult emergences from the F 0 experiments, different host eggs were provided to parasitoid wasp at the aforementioned conditions.…”

Background Egg parasitoids belonging to the genus Trichogramma (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) are important natural enemies that have been successfully used in biological control programs and mostly reared on the Mediterranean flour moth, Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). Host quality is a crucial factor that can determine parasitoid fitness. Main body Laboratory studies were carried out to evaluate the effects of 3 different larval diets CY diet (95% cornmeal + 5% yeast), CBGY diet (53.3% cornmeal + 26.7% wheat bran + 15% glycerine + 5% yeast), and WBGY diet (53.3% wheat flour + 26.7% wheat bran + 15% glycerine + 5% yeast) on some demographic parameters of E. kuehniella. Moreover, the performance of the species Trichogramma evanescens Westwood reared on the E. kuehniella eggs reared on the 3 artificial diets were determined. For the E. kuehniella rearing, the CY diet had a higher fecundity and greater emergence ratios. Nevertheless, CY diet also provided shorter developmental time, greater fecundity, and relatively higher female ratios of subsequent generations of the parasitoids. Conclusion The results suggest that the CY diet could be considered as a standard diet for the multigenerational rearing of T. evanescens.

Chilo partellus (Swinhoe, 1885) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is an invasive maize pest that can cause high yield losses. The pest has recently been introduced and established in eastern Mediterranean countries such as Türkiye. However, research regarding its expansion towards other regions in Türkiye and other countries is required. This study is the first to report the presence and abundance of the pest in South-eastern Türkiye provinces, Diyarbakır, Mardin, Ranlıurfa, and Rırnak as well as the infestation rate and its contribution to the stemborer-dependent infestation rates. There were significant differences between the abundances of the pest in different counties, while the infestation rate, the contribution to the stemborer-dependent infestation rate, and the contribution to the total stemborer population were not statistically different between counties. The pest was only recorded in three southern counties of Ranlıurfa, during routine September surveys in 2022 and was absent in Diyarbakır, Mardin, and Rırnak. Specimens were morphologically diagnosed, and for molecular identification and phylogenetic analysis, nucleotide sequencing of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI-I) gene was performed. All specimens were confirmed as C. partellus. Further, phylogenetic analysis revealed intraspecific genetic variation and the similarity of the specimens to reference sequences from Africa.
