	abstract = {The host-seeking and oviposition behaviour and the host-specificity of a pipunculid parasite of cicadellids, Eudorylas subterminalis, was studied in West Berlin. Visual stimuli appeared to be the most important factors in the location of a host by the ovipositing females, and only the 2nd-, 3rd- and 4th-instar nymphs were selected. The parasite egg was inserted into the host haemocoel between the 4th and 5th tergites. E. subterminalis was not host-specific and attacked any member of the family Cicadellidae (including Euscelidae). The pipunculid species so far recorded from West Berlin by various authors (3 species of Eudorylas, 3 of Pipunculus and 1 of Tomosvaryella) are listed together with their 20 host species, of which some were of economic importance; E. subterminalis and T. sylvatica had the widest host range.Abstract 2: During a stay at Berlin (West) in 1977/80 studies were conducted on the host-searching, oviposition and host-specificity of Eudorylas subterminalis, a parasitic fly species of Pipunculidae. The visual orientation of the female fly plays undoubtedly a dominant role in searching the host. The female fly usually selects for oviposition only second, third and fourth instar nymphs of the cicadellid hosts. The first instar nymph is rarely attacked, while fifth instar is not accepted at all. The female oviposits within the haemocoel between fourth and fifth tergital region of the host. The fly is unspecific and attacks species of leafhoppers belonging to the family Cicadellidae. The records of Pipunculidae and their hosts in Berlin (West) have also been stated.},

The host searching and oviposition behaviour of T. oryzaetora are also described.Abstract 2:  The mating behavior of Tomosvaryella oryzaetora Koizumi, Pipunculus mutillatus Loew and P. javanensis De Meurere is described. 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.},

The first deals with the biology, systematics and taxonomy of the parasitoids, while the second is concerned with field studies and more general aspects of host specificity and population dynamics (including the role of individual behaviour), and also current knowledge of community structure. The main groups considered in the first part of the review are the families Mymaridae, Dryinidae and Pipunculidae and the Order Strepsiptera and there is also a section on hyperparasitism and multiple parasitism of Auchenorrhyncha. Appendices are provided which contain some of the original data on which the review is based.},
