Remarks
- Structure: Egg is elliptical, waxen and white (Gomez-Menor Ortega, 1937). First stage larvae elongate-oval (Koteja, 1980b) and yellow in color (Gómez-Menor Ortega, 1937). Adult female is brownish red, convex, oval (Planchon, 1864). During oviposition females become irregularly ovoid (Koteja, 1980b).
- Biology: Discussion of biology by Viggiani (1991).
- Economic Importance: Microterys dichrous has been a common natural enemy of Nidularia pulvinata in southern Italy (Viggiani, 1996a).
- General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by Koteja (1980b), detailed description of life cycle and biological control by Viggiani, 1991a).
