Whiteflies are small hemipterans numbering more than 1,550 described species, of which about 50 are agricultural pests. Adults are free-living, whereas late first to fourth instars are sessile on the plant. All known species of whitefly parasitoids belong to Hymenoptera; two genera, Encarsia and Eretmocerus, occur worldwide, and others are mostly specific to different continents. All parasitoid eggs are laid in-or in Eretmocerus, under-the host. They develop within whitefly nymphs and emerge from the fourth instar, and in Cales, from either the third or fourth instar. Parasitized hosts are recognized by conspecifics, but super- and hyperparasitism occur. Dispersal flights are influenced by gender and mating status, but no long-range attraction to whitefly presence on leaves is known. Studies on En. formosa have laid the foundation for behavioral studies and biological control in general. We review past and ongoing studies of whitefly parasitoids worldwide, updating available information on species diversity, biology, behavior, tritrophic interactions, and utilization in pest management.

“…The per capita response of a parasitoid to variation in host density is described by the functional response, which has been categorized into types I, II and III and used to evaluate the potential impact of the parasitoid on the population dynamics of its hosts . Functional responses have been studied in several parasitoid−whitefly systems, including Encarsia formosa on T. vaporariorum , Trialeurodes ricini , Bemisia tabaci and B. argentifolii ; Eretmocerus eremicus on B. argentifolii ; E. longipes on Aleurotuberculatus takahashi and E. mundus on B. argentifolii . However, how fluctuating parasitoid and host density influences all TKPFP and whether the density of one organism has more effect than another have not been examined in the above parasitoid−whitefly systems.…”

Regardless of greenhouse whitefly density, the pest can be effectively controlled by release of E. warrae. Our study provides insight into the success of whitefly biological control programmes using the parasitoid augmentation approach. Models used and developed here can also be employed to evaluate biological control programmes for other parasitoid-whitefly systems. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
