Item First record of Euxestonotus error (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) in the Pacific Northwest, United States of America(2016-10) Echegaray, Erik R.; Stougaard, Robert N.; Bohannon, B.Euxestonotus error (Fitch) (Hymenoptera: Platygastridae) is considered part of the natural enemy complex of the wheat midge Sitodiplosis mosellana (Gehin) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae). Although previously reported in the United States of America, there is no record for this species outside the state of New York since 1865. A survey conducted in the summer of 2015 revealed that E. error is present in northwestern Montana and is likely playing a role in the suppression of wheat midge populations.
