Abstract Pachycrepoideus vindemiae is a generalist wasp parasitoid released for biological control of the pupal stage for several species of Tephritoidea and Muscoidea flies that limit production of fruits and poultry commodities, respectively, worldwide. The parasitoid wasp must find buried host pupae to oviposit on them, and several factors may influence this outcome. The objectives of this study were to determine the capacity of first, host larvae to burrow to pupate according to substrate humidity and second, the parasitoid wasp to burrow and parasitize buried host pupae according to different conditions (substrate type, host species and parasitization time exposure). Moreover, comparison of chemical profiles between host’s pupae potentially involved for host location by the parasitoid was realized by GC-FID. Peat humidity significantly affected the burrowing depth of Dasiops inedulis and Anastrepha striata and both species buried significantly deeper in peat with 50% humidity than in dry conditions. The number of emerged parasitoids is not different between the two tested host species . P. vindemiae performance was better in peat than in crop soil. In peat wasps’ parasitism is similar between buried pupae located at 0 mm or 10 mm depth regardless of the time of exposure to the parasitoid. Cuticular chemical profiles showed that the four-host pupa species studied did not share compounds. However, A. striata shared some compounds with D. inedulis and, M. domestica shared some with C. capitata. Common compounds were found in the extracts of parasitized and non-parasitized pupae of C . capitata , D . inedulis and M . domestica .

Abstract The coexistence and efficiency in pest control of introduced and native parasitoids can be challenging. Continuous observations of the cohabitation of parasitoid species could confirm the persistence of the introduced parasitoid in the ecosystem under co-existence scenarios. This study provides an example of such a co-existence for biocontrol of the invasive pest, Phthorimaea absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae). Two parasitoids, the introduced endoparasitoid Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris (Marsh) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and the native ectoparasitoid Bracon nigricans Szépligeti (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) were released in cages containing a tomato plant infested with P. absoluta . Parasitism and killing rate of P. absoluta by both parasitoid species, and the parasitoid and P. absoluta population were monitored weekly. The parasitoid species coexisted for seven weeks in the experimental units. Parasitism by D. gelechiidivoris was significantly affected by the presence of B. nigricans, with 73% and 22% parasitism in the absence and presence of B. nigricans, respectively. Parasitism by B. nigricans was not affected by its co-existence with D. gelechiidivoris . The number of D. gelechiidivoris adults increased eight-fold in five weeks in the absence of B. nigricans , while less than the initial number of adults were present in co-existence with B. nigricans . The P. absoluta infestation declined from the fifth week to 98% lesser than the control in all the treatments, either D. gelechiidivoris or B. nigricans as standalone treatments, as well as in combination. Since B. nigricans negatively affected D. gelechiidivoris population growth, releases of this introduced parasitoid should be considered with caution in areas where B. nigricans occurs.
