Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Rearing Apocephalus borealis

Hi all,

I got following question today. In Belgium Apocephalus borealis is never been found before but apparently the DNA has been found inside the bees. Someone collected bees in the hope they would be infected with eggs of the fly Apocephalus borealis. Her question was, how do you rear the animals after you collected bees which could be infected? Any information would be welcome because we don't know how to start.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Dieter
