Schauff, M.E. 2005 Ammonoencyrtus carolinensis, n. comb. (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae), a parasite of lobate lac scale Paratachardina lobata (Chamberlin) (Hemiptera: Kerriidae).. Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington 107(1): 115-118.

Notes: Ammonoencyrtus carolinensis n. comb. a parasite of lobate lac scale, Paratachardina lobata, is distinguished from other species of Ammonoencyrtus, and a diagnosis and summary of its known biology are given. A. carolinensis was previously reported attacking Mesolecanium nigrofasciatum. Parasitization of Keriidae is an unusual host shift for this group of parasitoids.
