Abstract

During the research study on natural enemies of agromyzid leaf miners in Urmia region, infested leaves of Nonea lutea (Desr.) (Boraginaceae) were collected and transferred to the laboratory for rearing of adults. Coincide with adult emergence of Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau, 1985) samples of Eulophid wasp were obtained. The parasitoid species was identified as Diglyphus sensilis (Yefremova, 2011). Based on the present literature, this is the first report of D. sesilis from Iran and its association with C. horticola is new.
