Natural enemy complex of the planthoppers,Dichoptera hyalinata F., Eurybrachys tomentosa F., and Ricania fertestrata F. includes two nymphal ectoparasites (Dryirtus spp.), two egg parasites (Proleurocents fulgoridis F. and Tetrastichus sp.), an internal larval mermithid parasite, and a predator (Phidippus sp.). Biological aspects ofDryinus spp. and P. fulgoridis are discussed.
