Abstract
A species of Rhyssa previously not known to be established in New Zealand, and identified as Rhyssa lineolata (Kirby), was discovered in two exotic forests in the Hawke's Bay area in 1958. This American species is parasitic on Sirex noctilio (F.) and is useful for the biological control of this insect. An outline is given of the differences between R. lineolata, R. persuasoria (L.), and the native Certonotus fractinervis (Vollenhoven).Keywords
