Abstract

Telenomus alsophilae, a parasite of the eggs of the geometrid Alsophila pometaria in North America, was introduced into Columbia, South America, for the biological control of a pest host in another genus, Oxydia trychiata. Successful results were obtained with this unorthodox procedure to control a forest insect.
