Abstract

The use of Bracon hebetor Say and Trichogramma minutum R. were attempted for biological control of Ephestia calidella (Guen.) but the former proved the only parasite which was successfully reared on the mature larvae of E. calidella being a serious pest of stored dry fruits. The adult was a small tiny braconid insect with smoky wings. It was an ectophagous larval parasite and was the only natural enemy of this pest described during the present investigation.
