Özet

The host plant range of Parabemisia myricae (Kuwana) (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) was surveyed in 14-day intervals in the citrus-growing area of the East Mediterranean region of Turkey from April 1991 to May 1994. Individuals on different host plants, parasitized by the specific parasitoid Eretmocerus debachi Rose and Rosen (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) were also determined. In 1992 and 1993, the population dynamics of P. myricae and E. debachi on the most important non-citrus host plants were recorded in weekly intervals at Demirhisar in the province Icel.
