- Diglyphus isaea is an ectoparasite, which means that it lays eggs beside the host. It can parasitize many species of leaf miner. In order to produce eggs it punctures mainly larvae, to feed on their body fluids. Once parasitized by the wasp, the leaf miner stops feeding. Diglyphus lays its eggs alongside the paralyzed leaf miner larva. When the larva hatches, it punctures the leaf miner and sucks out its body fluids. As a result the leaf miner larva dies. Diglyphus immediately starts to search for leaf miners to parasitize.

Nice one
So, the diglyphus preys on the leaf miners, but they poke holes in plants to get to the leaf miners... Do plants truly benefit from this, or are they only losing a parasite in exchange for a commensalistic partner?
Does hot weather increase the chance of leaf minor
Where could we buy these beneficials
can't u make a llitle bit long video?it's quite short
i watched your video about life cycle leaf miners, larva drops to the ground and soon becomes flies, so what kills larvae on the ground/ soil before it becomes another flies ? thank you
