Abstract
The literature on the Hymenoptera and Diptera parasitoids of leaf beetles is extensive and although there are some host-parasite catalogues for both orders, much information is concealed in individual publications on the biology/ecology of single chrysomelid species. Not all such references are included but most of the major works are included and it is considered that a reasonably comprehensive review of the parasitoids in the major families/subfamilies of the Hymenoptera and Diptera is presented.
