Abstract: 
A hymenopterous parasitoid complex attacking the eggs of the banana-spotting bug, Amblypelta lutescens lutescens(Distant), is reported for the first time from north Queensland. It includes an Anastatus sp. (Eupelmidae), Ooencyrtus sp.nov. (Encyrtidae) and a Gryon sp. (Scelionidae), and is similar to other complexes known to attack eggs of related coreids in Africa, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Parasitism ranged from 37.5-91.6% in eggs collected at three sites from Orange Jessamine, Murraya paniculata (L.) Jack. The Anastatus sp. was the dominant parasitoid.
