Relationship between Megastigmus suspectus Borr. size and Abies alba Mill. Seed size.
Investigation on the relationship between the size of the Borr. (Hymenoptera, Torymidae) and the size of Mill. seeds from which those insects emerged was conducted. The examined insects (n = 46) originated from southern Poland, and were obtained from cones collected in 1993. thorax len...
