Abstract
Two molecular methods were developed to distinguish between five Trichogramma (Hymenoptera, Trichogrammatidae) species which occur naturally in tomato fields of Portugal: Trichogramma cordubensis, T. evanescent T. turkestanica, T. pintoi, and T. bourarachae. The methods used were: (1) electrophoresis of PCR-aniplified ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS-2) followed by restriction endonuclease digestions and (2) esterase electrophoresis. Dichotomous keys based on each of the methods are provided foreasy and quick species differentiation.
