Abstract
⺠Olive oil was added to the diet of the adult parasitoid Cotesia glomerata. ⺠Lipid levels stabilized and increased when olive oil was included in the diet. ⺠Longevity was unaffected after 1 day, but decreased during continuous feeding. ⺠An olive oil enriched diet increases income resources available for allocation. ⺠Dietary lipid supplementation could increase parasitoid effectiveness in biocontrol.
