Extract

The distribution of the almond wasp, Eurytoma amygdali End., as a major pest of almonds in areas of the eastern Mediterranean, a general outline of its seasonal history, and studies on the biology of the adult in Israel, have been reported previously (Plaut, 1971a). This paper presents data obtained in 1964–71 on the biology of the immature stages.
