Relationship between Metisa plana and its parasitoids (braconidae and ichneumonidae) at different time-lags in oil palm plantation

Bagworm or Metisa plana, is the most important defoliator insect in the oil palm cultivation, while parasitoids such as Braconidae and Ichneumonidae are the common main natural enemies for bagworm. Although the relationship between natural enemies with its insect pest has been broadly investig...
