摘要：

The phoretic relationship between the egg parasitoid Telenomus sp. cf. euproctidis Wilcox and its host the tussock moth Euproctis taiwana was studied in Okinawa, Japan. One third of the female moths studied in the field carried female parasitoid adults. No male moths carried parasitoids. Parasitoids were observed only in the anal tuft of the moth. Laboratory observation revealed that most of the parasitoids left the body of the moth at the time of the first oviposition of their host and proceeded to lay eggs on the moth egg masses. © 1990 Japan Ethological Society.
