Understanding the potential impacts of alien wasps requires knowledge of ecological parameters that influence parasitism rates for species in their new environment. Sophora seed-feeding Cydia spp. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) were surveyed for larval parasitoids to determine how native and alien wasps are partitioned over an elevation gradient (2200-2800 m) on Hawaii Island, Hawaii. Parasitism rate of native Euderus metallicus (Eulophidae) increased with increased elevation, while parasitism rate by immigrant Calliephialtes grapholithae (Ichneumonidae) decreased. Parasitism by Pristomerus hawaiiensis (Ichneumonidae), origins uncertain, also decreased with increased elevation. Two other species, Diadegma blackburni (Ichneumonidae), origins uncertain, and Brasema cushmani (Eupelmidae), a purposefully introduced biological control agent for pepper weevil, did not vary significantly with elevation. Results are contrasted with a previous study of this system with implications for the conservation of an endangered bird species that feed on Cydia larvae. Interpretation of results is hindered by lack of knowledge of autecology of moths and wasps, origins, phylogeny, systematics, competitive ability, and physiological limitations of each wasp species. These factors should be incorporated into risk analysis for biological control introductions and invasive species programs.}, keywords = {biocontrol, Brasema, CALLIEPHIALTES, CHALCIDOIDEA, CONSERVATION, CYDIA, DIADEGMA, EUDERUS, EULOPHIDAE, EUPELMIDAE, gradient, Grapholitini, HAWAII, Ichneumonidae, LEPIDOPTERA, Mauna Kea, NONTARGET, Olethreutinae, Pacific Insects, PARASITISM, PRISTOMERUS, TORTRICIDAE}, isbn = {1366-638X}, author = {Oboyski, Peter T. and Slotterback, John W. and Banko, Paul C.} } @article {139, title = {[TITLE BLANK]}, journal = {Exotic MicrolepidopteraExotic Microlepidoptera}, volume = {2 (pts. 16-19)}, year = {1922}, month = {March, October, November, December}, pages = {481-512 [Mar], 513-544 [Oct], 545-576 [Nov], 577-608 [Dec]}, keywords = {CYDIA, description, Grapholitini, Laspeyresia, LEPIDOPTERA, Olethreutinae, Pacific Insects, TORTRICIDAE}, author = {Meyrick, E.} } @article {104, title = {Demographic analysis of delayed mating in mating disruption: A case study with Cryptophelbia illepida (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)}, journal = {Journal of Economic EntomologyJournal of Economic Entomology}, volume = {94}, number = {4}, year = {2001}, month = {2001/08/01}, pages = {785-792}, publisher = {Entomological Society of America}, abstract = {Laboratory-derived life tables were used to determine the effect of delaying mating of adult female koa seedworm, Cryptophlebia illepida (Butler) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), 4 and 6 d on population growth rates. Leslie matrices were developed from the life tables and used to project the effects for approximately four generations. Delay of mating caused a decrease in population growth rate and also resulted in asynchronous population cycling between control (1-d delay) and the delayed treatments. By the fourth generation, the control population began to increase 10 and 14 d before the 4- and 6-d delay treatments, respectively. Increasing the mortality of females during the first 7 d of adult life resulted in a greater reduction of the populations where mating was delayed than in the control populations. This result suggests that even at relatively low levels of natural enemy mortality, there is a synergistic effect when mating is delayed. The implications of these effects on mating disruption management programs are discussed.}, keywords = {control, Cryptophlebia, Grapholitini, HAWAII, LEPIDOPTERA, mating, Olethreutinae, Pacific Insects, TORTRICIDAE}, isbn = {0022-0493}, author = {Jones, Vincent P. and Aihara-Sasaki, Maria} } @article {105, title = {Life tables for the koa seedworm (Lepidoptera : Tortricidae) based on degree-day demography}, journal = {Environmental EntomologyEnvironmental Entomology}, volume = {26}, number = {6}, year = {1997}, pages = {1291-1298}, abstract = {The usefulness of demography performed on a degree-day scale is examined using laboratory studies on the koa seedworm, Cryptophelbia illepida (Butler).
