Biology |
Usually attacking Drosophilidae in
various habitats but sometimes also fruit-infesting Tephritidae or other
flies. (Nordlander & Grijpma,1991; literature on lab Ganaspis on
Drosophila as well as applied entomology literature on
Ganaspis reared from fruit-infestors: Melk and Govind, 1999; Vass
and Nappi, 2000). None of the host records are from Africa. |
