Abstract

Eutorna phaulocosma (Meyrick) was identified as a new host of the tachinid parasitoid Trigonospila brevifacies (Hardy). E. phaulocosma larvae were collected from wild blackberry on a native forest margin and laboratory reared on an artificial diet. T. brevifacies larvae emerged from parasitised E. phaulocosma, pupated and adult parasitoids emerged 12 days after pupation. The use of T. brevifacies as part of an integrated pest management programme for E. phaulocosma is discussed.
