- Abstract
The article focuses on a study which examines the parasitization and envenomation of Habrobracon hebetor (H. hebetor) Say on Galleria mellonella L. (G. mellonella) larvae's susceptibility to the fungi Metarhizium, Isaria, and Beauveria. The study conducted a bioassay to H. hebetor and G. mellonella population and used Student's t-test to determine the larvae mortality. The study concluded the possible association of the fungi's specialization with its tendency to infect insects.
