| Summary: | A preliminary study on diversity and abundance of ichneumonids and braconids (Insecta: Hymenoptera) oj Ayer
Hitam Forest Reserve (AHFR) oj Universiti Putra Malaysia was conducted Jrom 4 - 11 April 2000. Results
showed that AHFR houses a variety of ichneumonid and braconid species. Generally, the ichneumonids were
nearly twice as abundant and diverse than braconids. However, both insect groups were significantly more diverse
in the middle than in the Forest fringes. Two more additions of ichneumonid subFamilies (Adelognathinae and
Orthopelmatinae) for Malaysia were discovered from this Forest. |
