The signs © and L denote nymphs and larvae respectively. 
Insect parasites of H. concinna. 
Brumpt has several times found the nymphs of H. concinna at 
Chantilly and Fontainebleau to be infested with Ixodiphagus caucurtei 
du Buysson. Under experimental conditions, the nymphs were 
readily attacked by the chalcidid, but only about 2-4 % became 
parasitized.
