the single type specimen of the unrecognized species, chetogena flaviceps (bigot), was examined and found to be a subjective senior synonym of the well-known new world species of chetogena scutellaris wulp. the genitalia of the holotype was dissected and illustrated in detail. a redescription of c. scutellaris, including the male genitalic characters is provided.

The monotypic genera Epiplagiops Blanchard, 1943 and Tetragrapha Brauer and Bergenstamm, 1891 are revised. Both are invalidated and synonymized with Chetogena Rondani, 1856. Their type-species, Epiplagiops littoralis Blanchard, 1943 and Tetragrapha tessellata Brauer and Bergenstamm, 1891, are studied, redescribed, illustrated, and transferred to Chetogena. A lectotype is designated for T. tesse...

Worldwide, termites are one of few social insects. In this research, the stages embryonic development in parthenogenetic and sexual eggs Reticulitermes aculabialis R. flaviceps were observed described. flaviceps, egg FF FM groups happened during early phases development, whereas aculabialis, appeared mainly late phase development.

The tachinid parasitoid Chetogena scutellaris (Wulp) was reared from southern armyworm, Spodoptera eridania (Cramer), a new host record. When reared in cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hübner), (a new host) and in fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), in the laboratory, C. scutellaris developed successfully ca. 30% of the time. Success of parasitism depended on the numbers of eggs...
