During an investigation into the spread of this invasive pest in citrus orchards at the station, Siano Research, affiliated with the Agricultural Scientific Research Center in Lattakia, observed a case of internal parasitism of a wasp species on Asian citrus psyllids by the research team in September 2024. The parasitoid was identified according to the taxonomic key for the Hymenoptera order, based on the shape of the mid-thorax plate and the distinctive shape of the pronotum. According to the study, the parasitoid belongs to the Eulophidae family, and the globally recorded species is Tamarixia radiate Waterston,1922. This is the first recorded parasitoid on Asian citrus psyllids on the Syrian coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Asian citrus psyllid, Tamarixia radiata, Citrus, Syrian coast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">\u00a0Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v13n3p13.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 Plant Protection Department, Lattakia Agricultural Scientific Research Center , Syria. 2Siano Research Station,\u00a0 Lattakia Agricultural Scientific Research Center, Syria.
