Abstract

The aim of this study is to report egg parasitoids associated to Rhabdotalebra flava Catalano (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), in Tucuman province, Argentina. During the summer, Handroanthus impetiginosus (Mart. ex DC.) Mattos (Bignoniaceae) leaves with eggs of Rhabdotalebra flava were collected. Two species of parasitoids, Anagrus atomus (L.) (Mymaridae) and Epoligosita mexicana (Viggiani) (Trichogrammatidae) were identified as new host-parasitoid associations
