title: Ecological studies on the solitary ectoparasitoid Dirhinus wohlfahrtiae Ferriere (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae).
abstract: While Dirhinus wohlfahrtiae was abundant at the moderate weather, it could not be recovered during winter months. The life cycle required 22.86 days at 25 +/- 2 degrees C and 65 +/- 5% R.H., longevity of adult males and females was equal to 35.78 and 39.83 day respectively. Under a constant relative humidity (67%), the development and multiplication of the parasitoid was more optimum at 25 degrees C than at 18 and 35 degrees C.
