Abstract
Surveys were conducted for two years from 2017 to 2018 to record the occurrence of papaya mealybug, Paracoccus marginatus on different host plants and its parasitoids in Tamil Nadu and Pudhucherry. Infested plant parts were collected, reared under laboratory conditions and two encyrtid parasitoids viz, Acerophagus papayae, and Pseudleptomastix mexicana were recovered. The tritrophic relationship is presented in a form of flowchart for easy understanding of biocontrol workers.
