Abstract
Sampling of crapemyrtle trees (<jats:italic>Lagerstroemia</jats:italic> L.) in central Texas yielded the discovery of an invasive scale pest, <jats:italic>Lopholeucaspis japonica</jats:italic> Cockerell, and its parasitoid natural enemy, <jats:italic>Marlattiella prima</jats:italic> Howard. These discoveries expand the known range of both the scale insect and the parasitoid wasp in the United States. <jats:italic>Marlattiella prima</jats:italic> was not recovered in the absence of <jats:italic>L. japonica</jats:italic>. Of the two counties sampled, Brazos County yielded 26 <jats:italic>M. prima</jats:italic> individuals and Tarrant County yielded neither <jats:italic>M. prima</jats:italic> nor <jats:italic>L. japonica</jats:italic>.
