In the recent rearing records of larval parasitoids from &lt;em&gt;M. vitrata&lt;/em&gt; three species of wasps have been bred, Bassus relativus (Bhat and Gupta, 1977) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Agathidinae), &lt;em&gt;Phanerotoma hendecasisella&lt;/em&gt; Cameron, 1905 (Braconidae: Cheloninae) and &lt;em&gt;Trathala flavoorbital&lt;/em&gt;is (Cameron, 1907) (Ichneumonidae: Cremastinae). Amongst these three Indian species of wasps, &lt;em&gt;B. relativus&lt;/em&gt; is recorded for the first time as a larval parasitoid of &lt;em&gt;M. vitrat&lt;/em&gt;a. In the present study main diagnostic characters of all the three species of parasitic wasps along with their hosts and distribution details are provided.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Biological Control}, author={Gupta, Ankita and Sujayanand, G.
