Abstract
In this study, parasitation rate of adult parasitoids (Diptera, Tachinidae) on Sunn pest ( Eurygaster integriceps (Put.) (Heteroptera, Scutelleridae) and parasitoid species were determined in the overwintering site and wheat fields in Gaziantep and Kilis, Turkey. According to the results, parasitism rates on female and male adults of Sunn pest were 0-16 %, 0-6 %, respectively. While Heliozeta helluo (F.), Phasia subcoleoptrata (L.), Ectophasia oblonga (R.D) on the males were determined, Elomyia lateralis (Meig) with the three of them were determined on the females in Gaziantep overwintering site. In Kilis overwintering site, these rates were found to be 0-6 % on the males and 5-18 % on the females. While H. helluo (F.), and P. subcoleoptrata (1.), were determined on the males and, H. helluo (F.), P. subcoleoptrata (1.), E. oblonga (R.D) and Elomyia lateralis (Meig.) were determined on the females. Although, H. helluo (F.), and P. subcoleoptrata (1.), E. oblonga (R.D) and E. lateralis (Meig.) were determined in wheat fields in Gaziantep and Kilis, H.helluo was determined to be the dominant species. Average parasitation rates on Sunn pest ( Eurygaster integriceps (Put.) (Heteroptera, Scutelleridae) were determined to be 10.125 % in Gaziantep, and 17.75 % in Kilis
