Mm. Rossi et J. Pizzol, DEVELOPMENT OF TRICHOGRAMMA-CACOCCIAE AND TRICHOGRAMMA-EVANESCENS DURING AUTUMN AND WINTER UNDER NATURAL CONDITIONS IN SOUTHERN FRANCE, Journal of applied entomology, 121(1), 1997, pp. 29-36
The development of two Trichogramma species, T. cacoeciae and T. evane
scens (Hym., Trichogrammatidae), parasitoids of Lobesia botrana (Lep.,
Tortricidae) have been observed under natural conditions in Antibes-F
rance, during the fall and winter seasons, 1990/1991. It is clear that
, T. cacoeciae and T. evanescens can stop their development by either
quiescence or diapause, in these natural conditions. T. evanescens was
more sensitive to low temperatures than T. cacoeciae.
