An analysis of the particular topics in biological control
programmes all over the world indicates an increased interest in
the utilization of aphid parasites. Besides the so-called
traditional biological control of introduced aphids, there appears
a situation which could perhaps be called a renaissance of
biocontrol, i. e. the utilization of biotic agents against
insecticide-resistant populations of aphid pests. The rapid
increase in the amount of information as well as the necessity of
syntheti cal papers are the well-known features in today's
entomology. This requirement is much more topical in the groups
where brief summarized information is needed for research workers
in applied branches. The author has been well aware of all these
difficulties and requirements owing to his own experience both in
basic and applied research. Several years ago he decided to
summarize our knowledge on the aphid parasites of the world by
elaborating synthetical studies on the particular zoogeographical
areas. These papers have been intended to represent annotated
reviews of the parasite fauna, distribution, biologies and
utilization in aphid pest management, with keys to genera and
species, hos- parasite catalogue, and a list of references added.
Naturally, these studies are only relatively updated, with respect
to a certain deadline from which the research may be further
continued. At present, the Far East Asian and the Mediterranean
areas have been reviewed in this or at least in a similar manner.
