Abstract

A parasitoid (Cotesia tenebrosa WESMAEL, 1837, Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Microgastrinae) of Aricia morronensis (RIBBE, 1910), a species endemic to the Iberian peninsula, is recorded for the first time. Incidental details, and photos of the parasitoid-host interaction are also given. Information on the parasitoids recorded from the European species of the genus Aricia RECHENBACH is added.
