Abstract
⺠Parasitism was highest on eggs of Helicoverpa armigera and Cadra cautella. ⺠Number of progeny of T. lutea per parasitized host egg was highest on H. armigera. ⺠Number of progeny and sex ratio of T. lutea depended on host egg size and shape. ⺠Development of T. lutea was fastest on H. armigera and slowest on Chilo partellus. ⺠T. lutea can be mass-reared on eggs of H. armigera and C. cautella.
