Attack of the parasitoids!

The cocoons attached to our unfortunate Harlequins have hatched into adult parasitoids Dinocampus coccinellae. Given their short lifespan, they waste no time in finding new hosts to oviposit into. In a moment of frivolity, I created a movie and slideshow of Dinocampus on the rampage - enjoy!
