Polaszek, 2014 please.

Re: New Parasitoid Wasp

Hi Steve - no problem - I remember reading about that in the press and it rang bells because it was our very own Andy Polaszek that described the wasp. Not sure why I didn't add it back then but I was probably up to my neck in marine things :)  I have just added it:

Encarsia harrisoni Polaszek, 2014

Best wishes,
