| Abstract | ||||
| Comparative histology of parasitized and unparasitlzed hosts was used to evaluate proposed mechanisms of host regulation by endoparasitotd, Parasitization of Spodoplera littora/is larvae by the endoparasitold Microplilis rufivenln's w s found to C',:.'.e the destruction of female imagiii?b1e gonads and pathc:ogical change~ in tht; nervous system, These histopatho!ogical changes were reflected on tile locomotory and feeding activities, This regulative endoparasitoid not only distract t e nervous system, as a juvenile structure, but also annihilate the female gonads as an imaginable structure, | ||||
