| Accurate identification of species as biological candidates is the first step in establishing successful biological control programs. In Mexico, Trichogramma parasitoids are identified using morphological characters, which is a laborious procedure made only by experts; in addition, some morphological structures are susceptible to changes due to differences in diet or environment, and consequently there is a latent risk of misidentification. Moreover, morphological identification requires the presence of males, leaving female-only populations unidentifiable. As an alternative to morphological identification, the purpose of this work was to develop a molecular method for the identification of Trichogramma parasitoids from Mexican insectaries.
