Vol. 31, Number 2 - Yale University

• WANTED: Caterpillar "mummies" and parasitic wasps
reared from mummified caterpillars. For revision of
braconid genera Alelodes and ~, which mummify
lepidopteran larvae. Mummified host caterpillars shrink to
smaller than normal size, may discolor, but remain inflated
when dry and retain identifiable characteristics. Wasps
emerge through a circular emergence hole cut near rear of
mummy. Collected mummies should be isolated in separate
vials or capsules to keep wasps associated. Please send
mummy, wasp, data, name of host caterpillar and host plant
(if known). All "mummies" are of interest. but this spring in
particular I'm looking for volunteers to help collect
mummies of the eastern tent caterpillar, Malacosoma
amerjcanum, from as many localities as possible. These are
easily found in early to mid-May stuck on the layers of silk
inside the tents on wild cherry. Also, I would like help
finding mummies of the fall bollworm, Hyphantria Q.U.D..lia,
later in the summer. For further information and collecting
capsules, please write: Scott R. Shaw, Museum of
Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA
02138, USA.
