Praon v Aphids
Working in the garden it was noticed that there was strange looking aphid on a rose leaf. In fact it was the empty skin of an aphid with a white disc underneath.The disc was the chrysalis of a tiny parasitic wasp, of the Praon species. An adult lays its egg on the young aphid and its grub develops inside it. When the grub is mature it emerges cutting a hole in the aphids under body and attaches the aphid to the leaf on which it is living. It then uses the corpse as protection of its chrysalis from predators.

7- Spot ladybird Coccinella 7-punctata
This photograph shows a 7-Spot Ladybird that has been attacked by Dinocampus coccinellae, a parasitic wasp. Adult wasps inject the beetle with a single egg. The wasp larva hatches and lives inside the ladybird eating its non-vital organs until it is ready to pupate. It paralyzes the ladybird, eats its way out through the underside – all while the ladybird is alive - then spins a cocoon between the beetle’s legs and pupates there while the still living host stands guard over it.
