This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in cases of superparasitism. The paper also provides morphological distinctions between T. drosophilae and related species, contributing to its identification and aiding future studies on its role in biological control.
