| dc.description.abstract | This investigation was designed to compare the rate of parasitism by Bathyplectes anurus (Thom.) and Bathyplectes curculionis (Thom.) in Oklahoma and to determine their effective parasitism of the alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica (Gyll.). B. anurus was introduced at several locations in Oklahoma to increase the parasite's distribution in the state. Hyperparasites of B. curculionis were reared from parasite cocoons and identified. Initial steps were undertaken to identify alfalfa weevil management practices which will encourage parasitism by B. curculionis and allow more extensive establishment of B. anurus in the state. | |
