Diglyphus isaea

Digline biological control agent contains the ectoparasitic wasp, Diglyphus isaea. It specializes in attacking the larval stages of leafminer pests, such as Liriomyza species L. trifolii and L huidobrensis, as well as the chrysanthemum leafminer, Phytomyza syngenesiae.

Target Pests

Leafminer

Key Features

Stops leaf damage quickly.
Adult Diglyphus paralyzes leafminer larvae with its sting and will host feed on them.
Life cycle is faster than leafminer.

How it Works

Diglyphus adults paralyze pests and lay eggs next to paralyzed leafminer larvae, which quickly hatch and begin to feed.
Parasitized leafminer larvae move away from the mine and stop feeding, therefore the mine stops growing immediately.
The parasitoid pupates inside the leaf mine before hatching and continuing the cycle.
Development from egg to adult is 26-27 days at 15°C/59°F and 10-11 days at 25°C/77°F.
Activity decreases at low light levels.

Delivery System
