Serangga parasitoid pada pupa Troides helena Linnaeus dan Papilio aristolochiae Linnaeus (Lepidoptera : Papilionidae) dari penangkaran kupu Cicurug, Sukabumi

Abstract

Untuk mendapatkan parasitoid, pupa kupu raja Troides helena dan kupu ekor panjang Papilio aristolochiae telah dikoleksi dari penangkaran kupu Cicurug, Sukabumi dari bulan April sampai November 2001. Pupa-pupa tersebut di pelihara clalam botol pemeliharaan sampai keluar parasitoid. Tiga jenis parasitoid telah dipertelakan dalam 3 famili, yaitu Brachymeria /asus (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae), Xanthopimpla sp. (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), dan Megaselia sp. (Diptera: Phoridae). B. /asus dan Xanthopimpla sp. memarasit P. aristolochiae sedangkan Megaselia sp. memarasit Troides helena. Dokumentasi dilakukan pada tiap jenis parasitoid meliputi jwnlah individu parasitoid yang keluar dari inang tunggal, persentase inang terparasit, dan kondisi pupa yang terparasit.

To breed parasitoids, pupae of the common birdwings froides helena and common rose Papilio aristolochiae were regularly sampled from April to November 2001 from Cicurug butterfly farms, Sukabumi Those pupae were reared in rearing bottle until the parasitoids emerged. Three parasitoids were recorded belonging to three families, i.e. Brachymeria lasus (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae), Xanthopimpla sp. (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), and Megaselia sp. (Diptera: Phoridae). B. lasus dan Xanthopimpia sp. parasitized on P. aristolochiae, whereas Megaselia sp. parasitized on Troides helena. Illustration were presented for each parasitoid spesies, including the number of individual parasitoids which emerged from single host, the percentage of the parasitized hosts, and the condition of the parasitized pupae.
