Provides information on the biology and ecology of both stemborers and their parasites, including tritrophic-level interactions between plants, pests and parasites. This book is intended for biological control practitioners in the tropics, especially those involved in managing stemborers of gramineous crops. Special attention is given to the generalised hierarchical steps involved in successful parasitization and to the various foraging strategies employed by stemborer parasites. A user-friendly key that incorporates parasite biology and taxonomy is provided to assist in determining the foraging strategy used by parasites.
