Luna de Carvalho (the facinating order Strepsiptera) "Many insects which have been considered as pests, such as leafhoppers and cockroaches, have species-specific Strepsipteran endoparasites. Inoculation of a pest population with the corresponding parasitoid has been found to aid in minimizing the impact of these pests. This method is useful in agriculture as a means of avoiding addition of chemicals to crops for pest control" (Wikipedia). Spine ends frayed, otherwise a very good copy.
