Parasitic control

Abstract

Parasites (parasitoids) associating with Lepidoptera, including Pieris brassicae, attracted enough attention to be illustrated by the early entomologist Joanne Goedart (1662) even before the nature of parasitism was properly understood. John Ray (1710) was perhaps only one of several naturalists who independently discovered the essence of the host-parasite relationship in the early part of the 18th century, but it is of particular interest here that his celebrated conclusions were inspired by watching the braconid wasp now known as Apanteles glomeratus (L.) attacking larvae of P. brassicae.

“... I think that the ichneumon wasps prick these caterpillars with the hollow tube of their ovipositor and insert eggs into their bodies; the maggots are hatched by the warmth of them, and feed there until full grown; then they gnaw through the skin, come out, and spin their cocoons.”
