Primeiro relato do parasitóide Pachycrepoideus vindemiae Rondani (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) parasitando pupas Sarcodexia lambens Wiedemann (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) no Brasil

Abstract

Este trabalho relata a primeira ocorrência de Pachycrepoideus vindemiae Rondani (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) parasitando estágios imaturos de Sarcodexia lambens Walker (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) em fezes humanas no Brasil. A prevalência de parasitismo foi de 18,2%.

Isolation and characterization of polymorphic microsatellite loci for Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Rondani) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae)

“…Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Rondani) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is a cosmopolitan solitary ectoparasitoid that is 2-3 mm long and attacks the pupae of a range of cyclorrhaphous dipteran species, including Drosophila melanogaster, Ceratitis capitata, Rhagoletis sp, Delia radicum, Fannia canicularis, and Musca domestica (Rueda and Axtell, 1985), D. suzukii (Chabert et al, 2012), Cyrtoneurina pararescita (Postal, 2007), Megaselia scalaris (Marchiori and Barbaresco, 2007), and Sarcodexia lambens (Marchiori et al, 2003). This parasitoid had been used to biologically control such fly pests as house and stable flies (Petersen et al, 1992).…”

Effects of Host Age on the Parasitism ofPachycrepoideus vindemmiae(Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), an Ectoparasitic Pupal Parasitoid ofBactrocera cucurbitae(Diptera: Tephritidae)

“…Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Rondani) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is an ectoparasitic idiobiont that exercises control over a great number of Diptera in the families of Tephritidae, Tachinidae, Sarcophagidae, Muscidae, Calliphoridae and Anthomyiidae (Marchiori & Barbaresco 2007). It is a solitary pupal parasitoid and a biological weapon against economically important tephritid flies including B. cucurbitae (Wang et al 2004), B. dorsalis and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) and several Drosophila (Marchiori et al 2002(Marchiori et al , 2003. It is one of the parasitoids most widely used for the biological control of Musca domestica (L.) and Stomoxys calcitrans (Linnaeus) (Meyer et al 1990;Petersen et al 1992).…”

Effects of female diet and age on offspring sex ratio of the solitary parasitoid Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Rondani) (Hymenoptera, Pteromalidae)

“…Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Rondani, 1875) (Hymenoptera, Pteromalidae) is a cosmopolitan solitary ectoparasitoid, attacking pupae of a range of cyclorrhaphous dipteran species, such as Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann, Rhagoletis sp., Delia radicum L., Fannia canicularis L., and Musca domestica L. (Rueda & Axtell 1985), Cyrtoneurina pararescita Couri (Marchiori & Silva Filho 2007), Megaselia scalaris (Marchiori & Barbaresco 2007), Sarcodexia lambens Walker (Marchiori et al 2003). The parasitoid has a peculiarity as a hyperparasitoid of dipteran and hymenopteran parasitoids (Wang & Messing 2004), and also superparasitoidism when ovipositing in a single host (Tormos et al 2009).…”
