Quednau, F.W., & Hübsch, H.M. 1964 Factors influencing the host-finding and host-acceptance pattern in some Aphytis species (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae).. South African Journal of Agricultural Science 7: 543-554.

Notes: Experiments are described analysing some of the key stimuli by which species of Aphytis recognize their hosts, and which when presented artificially, elicit the typical pattern of examination, drilling and host-mutilation by the parasite. Reference is made to the host-mutilation test on uncovered red scale (Aonidiella aurantii bodies in a previous experiment.
