Seasonal parasitism of hemlock looper (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) eggs in eastern Canada
Abstract A 2-year field study was conducted using sentinel traps to determine the seasonal distribution of the egg parasitoid (Hymenoptera) complex attacking hemlock looper, Lambdina fiscellaria (Guenée), throughout eastern Quebec and western Newfoundland. Hemlock looper populations remained low in...
