Locality: Netherlands, Leiden, last week. They were found near the mushroom Agaricus nivescens var. squarrosipes, a rare species in the Netherlands, in which many fly larvae were present. Some Braconidae of a rare species previously unknown from the Netherlands were reared from the same mushroom. Possibly this Suillia is the host for this parasitoid.

Thanks! What is known about the biology of this species? Does it develop in other mushroom species too? |
