| Abstract | ||
| The scale insects of the superfamily Coccoidea are among the most important and harmful pests of fruit trees in Iran. In order to collect and identify parasitoid wasps of Coccoidea, a two-year of sampling was carried out during 2015-2016 in Markazi province. The parasitoid wasps were reared from of scale insects and then were collected daily and preserved in 75% alcohol. The results showed that 10 species of parasitoid wasps belonging to 7 genera from 3 families had parasitism activity on Scale insects. Of them, 3 species were reported for the first time from Iran which are marked with asterisk. Identified species of parasitoid wasps are as follows: Encyrtidae: Blastothrix sericea Dalman, 1820; B. truncatipennis (Ferriere, 1955)*; Habrolepis pascuorum Mercet, 1921; Microterys darevskii Trjapitzin, 1968; M. tricoloricornis De Stefani, 1886; Aphelinidae: Aphytis chrysomphali (Mercet, 1912); Coccophagus piceae Erdos, 1956; Pteroptrix dimidiata Westwood, 1833*; P. opaca Erdos, 1956*; Pteromalidae: Pachyneuron muscarum (Linnaeus, 1758). | ||
