Generally, Eretmocerus species have 2 – 3 setae on the side lobe. The new species is close to E. trialeurodis Hayat, but differs from it in the length of ovipositor, which is 0.86× clava length and subequal in length to the mid tibia, and in having the mid tibial spur 0.52× the basitarsus, and with fewer setae on the vertex.</p> <p>Eretmocerus lannae sp. nov. is a potential biocontrol agent of A. floccosus; the parasitoid population was found to be abundant. Although A. floccosus was infesting heavily both the golden dewdrop (D. repens) and guava (P. guajava), only the population on guava was parasitized by E. lannae. The reason for this selective host preference could be plant secondary metabolites, or possibly that the population of A. floccosus on golden dewdrop secretes more wax than the guava population, creating unfavourable conditions for parasitization.</p> <p>Etymology</p> <p>The species name lannae is derived from ‘lanna’ a Latin word for ‘ lobe ’, reflecting the prominent frenal arms.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03FD422B9070CA6DFEF4B4F1FE57FD98	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
