Abstract excerpt

In parasitoids, the adaptive significance of superparasitism (laying of egg(s) in already parasitized hosts) has been the subject of strong controversy. The current view is to interpret this behaviour as an adaptation to increased competition for hosts, because the supernumerary egg still has a chance to win possession for the host. However, we recently discovered that in the solitary parasitoid Leptopilina...
