Abstract

It was found thatEupelmus pullus Rusch. parasitized the larvae ofResseliella skuhravyorum Skrzypcz. in Poland. Examination of the ripening seeds and cones ofLarix decidua Mill. andL. polonica Rac. showed that the average larval parasitism was 18.0% and 19.5% respectively. Information on the other parasites of insects damaging seeds and cones ofL. decidua andL. polonica is given.
