Development of the solitary endoparasitoid Microplitis demolitor: host quality does not increase with host age and size (2004, methodology): “Many koinobionts are larval endoparasitoids that are capable of attacking a wide range of host sizes, so that the amount of available resources may change greatly between oviposition and pupation (Harvey et al., 1994, 2000; Harvey & Strand, 2002; Elzinga et al., 2003).”
THE DEVELOPMENTAL STRATEGIES OF ENDOPARASITOID WASPS VARY WITH HOST FEEDING ECOLOGY (2002, background): “Campoplegine ichneumonids obligately consume most or all host tissues and usually pupate after the host is consumed, while microgastrine braconids usually feed only on host hemolymph and emerge from the still living host to pupate externally (Gauld and Bolton 1988, Harvey et al. 2000).”
Factors affecting the evolution of development strategies in parasitoid wasps: the importance of functional constraints and incorporating complexity (2005, background): “In the third, adult parasitoid size is mostly unaffected by variations in the size of host at parasitism but development time is much longer in small than in large hosts (Wani et al., 1994; Harvey & Vet, 1997; Harvey et al., 2000b; Harvey & Strand, 2002) (Figure 2C).”
Lifetime Reproductive Success in the Solitary Endoparasitoid, Venturia canescens (2001, methodology): “The latter method of estimating fecundity is frequently seen in the literature with other parasitoid species (e.g., Waage and Ng, 1984; Hopper, 1986; Corrigan and Lashomb, 1990; Volkl and Mackauer, 1990; Harvey et al., 2000 ).”
Superparasitism in Cotesia glomerata: response of hosts and consequences for parasitoids (2003, background): “glomerata exacerbates individual competition within hosts as this gregarious parasitoid has to adjust its requirements by consuming variable amounts of host resource in response to brood size (Harvey, 2000; Harvey et al., 2000).”
Host age and fitness‐related traits in a koinobiont aphid parasitoid (2005, background): “Arguments have been based principally, if not exclusively, on the relationship between host size at oviposition and emerging parasitoid size, whereas the relationship with the parasitoid’s development time is less well documented (Harvey et al., 2000).”
