[edit] Parasitic HYmenoptera Research Labs

This research group is led by Dr. Bob Wharton and Dr. Jim Woolley, professors in the Department of Entomology, Texas A&M University. These two laboratories study the taxonomy, biology and use in biological control of parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera) in the superfamily Chalcidoidea and the families Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, Figitidae and Diapriidae. These wasps are a primary source of natural enemies for the natural and biological control of pest insects. In addition, they are important components of the biological diversity in both natural and managed ecosystems.

[edit] Parasitoids of Fruit Infesting Tephritidae

Keys, taxon pages, and images of the hymenopteran parasitoids of Tephritids.

[edit] The Diapriidae

A PEET product on wasps of the family Diapriidae.

[edit] Catalogous Evaniidorum

This is an online catalog of information about ensign wasps (Evaniidae). It is a collaborative project between Andy Deans and the Wharton Lab.

[edit] Hymenoptera Glossary

An interactive glossary of terms used to describe the morphology of hymenopterans.

[edit] jRNA

Web pages and tools on the use of RNA scondary structure in phylogenetic reconstruction.

[edit] Opiine Species Databases

Comprehensive databases of the Opiine (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) literature including referenced hosts, distributions and synonymies.

[edit] Taxonomic Key Server

Taxonomic keys, both historical and in progress, built via web-forms and served from a relational-database.

[edit] Digitally Imaging Parasitic Hymenoptera

These pages by Matt Yoder and these by Jungwook Kim were done during their time at the PHyRL labs.

[edit] Systematics Discussion Group

Join us weekly for a discussion of hot topics in systematics.

[edit] Courses

This server hosts course pages for ENTO 301, ENTO 601, ENTO 621 and the Study Abroad program in Dominica.
