“…This group of the family Eulophidae has been chosen for the present study because its members are well known as the most abundant parasitoids of leaf-mining Lepidoptera (see e.g. Yefremova and Mishchenko 2008 , Yefremova et al 2009 , 2011 ). At the same time, many species of these parasitic wasps belong to the subfamily Eulophinae that is, in turn, the most karyotypically diverse group of the Eulophidae ( Gokhman 2002 , 2009 ).…”

Karyotypes of eleven parasitoid species of the family Eulophidae were examined, namely, Chrysocharis laomedon (Walker, 1839) (2n = 10), Chrysocharis sp. aff. laomedon (n = 5, 2n = 10), Chrysocharis sp. aff. albipes (Ashmead, 1904) (2n = 12), Mischotetrastichus petiolatus (Erdös, 1961) (n = 6, 2n = 12), Minotetrastichus frontalis (Nees, 1834) (n = 5, 2n = 10), Cirrospilus pictus (Nees, 1834) (2n = 12), Hyssopus geniculatus (Hartig, 1838) (2n = 16), Sympiesis gordius (Walker, 1839) (2n = 12), S. sericeicornis (Nees, 1834) (2n = 12), Pnigalio agraules (Walker, 1839) (2n = 12 + 0–2B) and Pnigalio gyamiensis Myartseva & Kurashev, 1990 (2n = 12 + 0–6B) reared from Phyllonorycter acerifoliella (Zeller, 1839), Ph. apparella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1855), Ph. issikii (Kumata, 1963) (Gracillariidae) and Chrysoesthia sexguttella (Thunberg, 1794) (Gelechiidae). Chromosome sets of all species except P. agraules and P. gyamiensis were studied for the first time. B chromosomes were detected in the two latter species; in P. gyamiensis, the maximum number of B chromosomes represents the highest value known for parasitic wasps to date.

“…The most reliable host records concern moths of the genus Phyllonorycter: P. agilella (Zeller 1846), P. comparella (Duponchel 1843), P. emberizaepennella (Bouché 1834), P. harrisella (Linnaeus 1761), P. issikii (Kumata 1963), P. quercifoliella (Zeller 1839), P. pomonella (Zeller 1846), P. sagitella (Bjerkander 1790), P. salictella (Zeller 1846), P. sorbi (Frey 1855), P. sylvella (Haworth 1828) and P. ulmifoliella (Hübner 1817) (Noyes 2010). These 12 species were also mentioned as hosts of M. frontalis in the Middle Volga Basin (Yefremova et al 2009). M. frontalis has been studied for 165 years and only once has the morphology of its preimaginal stages (on Phyllocnistis labyrinthella (Bjerkander 1790)) been described, by Sundby (1957), who also described and figured the egg and the larva of the first and last instars, but not the pupa.…”

The dominant parasitoids were Minotetrastichus frontalis (Nees ab Esenbeck 1834) and Chrysocharis laomedon (Walker 1839).…”

The biology and morphology of the early larval instars of Minotetrastichus frontalis (Nees) are redescribed and the morphology of the preimaginal stages of Chrysocharis laomedon (Walker) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) are described in detail for the first time. Both species are larval-pupal parasitoids of Phyllonorycter issikii (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae), which is associated with Tilia sp. The female of M. frontalis lays her egg beside the host larva and the newly hatched first instar larva moves and has to find the host larva. The larva of P. issikii tries to continue its feeding but never pupates after paralysis. The female of C. laomedon lays its egg inside the cuticle of the larva of P. issikii, but the newly hatched parasitoid larva vacates the host larva and develops externally on its surface as an ectoparasitoid. Such behaviour might be facilitated by the constant temperature and humidity inside the mine. Some peculiarities of parasitoid-host relationships are described and discussed.
