	abstract = {Information is presented on the pupation site and overwintering of Tomosvaryella oryzaetora, Pipunculus mutillatus, P. javanensis and P. orientalis, parasitoids of the cicadellid rice pest Nephotettix cincticeps, from field studies in the Yamaguchi area of Japan in 1979-80. The results suggested that there are two types of overwintering in this area. In the first type, the parasitoids oviposit between mid-August and early September and adults emerge between late October and early December. The eggs oviposited at this stage hatch in the hosts, overwinter as 1st-instar larvae, pupate in early April and adults emerge in May to early June. In the second type, oviposition occurs between early and mid-October and larvae escape in mid- to late November, overwinter in the pupal stage and emerge the following spring. Between January and April, 1980, parasitism of 4th-5th-instar nymphs of N. cincticeps was 0-17\% while that of adults was 0-14\%.},

The cephalopharyngeal skeleton of the mouthparts of the larvae and the posterior spiracular plates of the larvae and the pupa show specific characters and are used for identification. The labial plate in the 2nd-instar larva seen in the present species consists of 2 sclerites with minute teeth at the anterior margin, differing from the British species, P. semifumosus [Cephalops semifumosus], which has one sclerite.Abstract 2: The morphology of the first and second instar larvae and puparia of the following four Japanese Pipunculidae arasitic on Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler are described: Tomosvaryella oryzaetora Koizumi, Pipunculus multillatus Loew, P. javanensis De Meijere and P. orientalis (Koizumi). Cephalopharyngeal skeleton of the mouthparts in the first and second instar larvae as well as posterior spiracular plates of the late first and second instar larvae and the puparium show specific characters and are used for identification. The labial plate in the second instar larva seen in the present species consists of two sclerites with minute teeth at the anterior margin, differing from the known British (UK) species, P. semifumosus, which has one sclerite.},

Mating in these species is mainly seen in the late morning and at dusk in paddy fields. In T. oryzaetora mainly studied, contact of the two sexes occurs on substrate or in the air, but the coupling of their terminalia is seen only on substrate. The female responds to the male on her back by spreading her wings, and raises her terminalia in order to accept the male aedeagus. In the final action, the male{\textquoteright}s legs hang freely and his wings vibrate rapidly. Host searching and oviposition behaviors of T. oryzaetora are also described.},
