Biological Control of Solenopsis Fire Ants by Pseudacteon Parasitoids: Theory and Practice

Biological Control of Solenopsis Fire Ants by Pseudacteon Parasitoids: Theory and Practice

Pseudacteon parasitoids are potential biocontrol agents of invasive Solenopsis fire ants. Pseudacteon species that parasitize the invasive S. invicta Buren and S. richteri Forel have been introduced to, and naturally dispersed across, the southeastern USA, although there is no evidence yet that Sole...
