Abstract
Inferences regarding the value ofNasonia vitripennisin the natural control ofMusca domesticabased on laboratory research should consider the general absence of this parasite on that host in nature. Predominant natural parasites ofM.domesticaare listed.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
