Abstract

The species structure and dynamics of the parasitoid complex of the lime leafminer Phyllonorycter issikii Kumata (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae) were studied in three test plots in Izhevsk (Udmurtia) during 2001–2005. The leafminer mortality rate associated with activity of this complex was assessed.
