Year: 1994
Volume: 55
Pages: 65-91.
Abstract: Aiming to assess the species population of Hymenoptera and Diptera developing in Lipara galls in Hungary, 3893 galls were collected from 26 localities; 412 galls produced Hymenoptera. Twenty species belonging to 10 families were identified, where parasitoids developing in Lipara pupae were found most common, yielding 90% of the total frequency of occurrence. The relevant literature written in Hungary or abroad is fully presented. Results on associational relations and extent of specialization among Hymenoptera living in galls are provided, with comments on reed management and their role in reed degradational processes, considering environmental aspects. The host of Baryproctus baripus (Marshall 1885) is ascertained.Journal: Folia entomologica hungaricaJournal abbreviation: Folia ent. hung.ISSN: 0373-9465Publisher: , Editor(s): Mahunka, S.
