Abstract
► Host attack behaviour of parasitoids was examined in the context of host availability. ► Anticipation of future host availability is based on a 'host cue detour'. ► Anticipated host availability increases parasitoid host-killing behaviour. ► Anticipated host availability apparently increases protein consumption by parasitoids.
