Dear colleagues,

I would appreciate any information (records, species names, references) concerning Tachinidae (Phasiinae) parasites of ADULTS (or nymphs + adults) of the pentatomid bug Picromerus bidens (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) within its Palaearctic range: What species can be parasites of adults of this bug?

Thank you very much in advance!

All the best,

Dmitry.
