Abstract
⺠Pseudacteon obtusus is established in Florida and dispersing outward at 8-12 km/yr. ⺠Pseudacteon curvatus and P. obtusus are excluding the previously abundant Pseudacteon tricuspis. ⺠P. obtusus competes well with the very abundant P. curvatus, unlike P. tricuspis. ⺠Despite strong competition, the three flies were positively associated with each other. ⺠Release of P. obtusus did not measurably increase net parasitoid numbers.
