First record of Tamarixiadahlsteni Zuparko (Hymenoptera, Eulophidae), a parasitoid of Triozaeugeniae Froggatt (Hemiptera, Triozidae) and current status of the Tamarixia species in Mexico.

Parasitic wasps of the genus Tamarixia represent important biological control agents of members of the true bug group, Psylloidea, and are host specific; therefore, they can be used to control insect pests. In this study we report, for the first time, the presence of the parasitoid Tamarixiadahlsteni in Mexico and its mitochondrial barcode region of the cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI). We also review the species diversity of the genus Tamarixia in Mexico.
