Name
Therophilus tumidulus (Nees, 1812) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Microdus tumidulus Nees: Luciano et al. 1988[1]
Italian distribution of reared parasitoids
Sardinia: Luciano et al. 1988[1]
Distribution
Therophilus tumidulus is widespread in the Palearctic area: throughout Europe, Morocco, Russia, Caucasus, Turkey, Iran, Central Asia as far as Japan and China (Yu 1997-2012[2]; Yu et al. 2012[3]).
Host range
The species is known as larval parasitoid of Lepidoptera Momphidae, Gelechiidae, Depressariidae and especially Tortricidae, including the vine tortrix moth Sparganothis pilleriana (Voukassovitch 1924[4], Villemant et al. 2012[5]).
Ecological role
Therophilus tumidulus was the second most frequent larval parasitoid of EGVM on Daphne gnidium in Sardinia, after Phytomyptera nigrina, with parasitism rates ranging from 12.5 to 24.1% in the first generation and 8.6% in the third generation. Telenga (1934)[6] mentioned this species as one of the main parasitoids of EGVM in Crimea vineyards.
