Abstract

Two new species of Aprostocetus, A. ficicolae sp. nov. and A. malloticolae sp. nov. are described from northern India. The new species are parasitoids of psylloids, Pauropsylla ficicola Kieffer and Trioza malloticola (Crawford) (Hemiptera: Psylloidea: Triozidae) which cause leaf galls on Ficus roxburghii Wallich and Mallotus philippensis, Mueller Argoviensis respectively, both important multipurpose trees in India.
