Encyridae科是Chalcidoidae中最大的科之一,约有500个已描述的属和3000种。Encyrtids是经济上重要的粉虱最常收集和使用的寄生蜂之一。东方粉虱寄生蜂通过总结东方一个部落Anagyrini(叶蜂亚科)的分类地位、寄主记录和生物学,解决了分类学中的一些问题,并将线虫作为生物防治生物体的用途。本书不分章节展开;它被安排成专题部分。这些部分包括简要的介绍,然后是:对线虫的历史回顾,材料和方法,标本保存库的缩写,术语和测量,“线虫科的系统发育和分类”,和“Anagyrini的系统发育”。这些部分的正文不到40页。这本书的大部分内容都是关于Anagyrini的“物种修订”。在修订之后,对生物防治中使用的线虫和攻击粉虱的线虫的寄主-寄生蜂索引进行了总结。文本相对没有错误。格式看起来很大,每个属都从一个新的页面开始;每个标题和相关的空间占页面的三分之一以上。如果使用不同的格式,本可以节省相当大的空间。
THE FAMILY ENCYRTIDAE ranks among the largest of the Chalcidoidea with about 500 described genera and 3,000 species. Encyrtids are among the most commonly collected and employed parasitoids of economically important mealybugs. Oriental Mealybug Parasitoids addresses some of the problems in taxonomy and in the utility of encyrtids as biological control organisms by summarizing the taxonomic status, host records, and biology of one tribe, Anagyrini (subfamily Tetracneminae), in the Orient.The book is not developed in chapters; it is arranged into topical sections. These sections include a brief Introduction followed by: historical reviews of encyrtids, materials and methods, abbreviations of specimen depositories, terms and measurements," Phylogeny and Classification of the Encyrtidae," and" Phylogeny of Anagyrini." These sections comprise less than 40 pages of text. The bulk of the book is devoted to a" revision of species" of Anagyrini. The revision is followed by a summary of encyrtids used in biological control and a host-parasitoid index of encyrtids attacking mealybugs. The text is relatively free of errors. The format seems expansive, each genus beginning on a new page; each heading and associated space comprise more than a third of a page. Considerable space could have been saved with a different format.
