    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Le parasitoïde scelionid,Platytelenomus busseolae, a été recueilli des ooplaques de la sésamie dans la région d'Istiaea, en Grèce Centrale. Le parasitisme naturel a été étudié pendant les années 1986 et 1987. Un nombre de 3 382 ooplaques avec un total de 205 227 œufs ont été recueillis. Les premiers œufs parasitisés ont été récoltés fin-juillet, début-août et les derniers à la mi-octobre. En 1986, 76,2% des ooplaques et 42,8% des œufs étaient parasitisés, mais en 1987 les valeurs respectives étaient 27,6% et 12,9%. L'activité moindre du parasitoïde en 1987 serait due aux conditions climatiques hivernales et estivales. En 1987, la sex ratio, femalle: mâle, a été 1,5: 1 et 26,2% des ooplaques seulement ont donné naissance à des ♂♂. Les ♀♀ fécondées ont produit 3 fois plus de ♀♀ que de ♂♂. Dans des conditions climatiques favorables, le parasitoïde peut jouer un rôle important dans la lutte biologique contre la sésamie.
    Notes: Abstract The egg parasitoid,Platytelenomus busseolae (Gahan) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) was recorded from egg masses of the corn stalk borer,Sesamia nonagrioides (Lefebvre) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on maize in the area of Istiaea, Central Greece. Natural parasitism was studied during the years 1986, 1987. A total of 3,382 egg masses, containing 205,227 eggs, was collected from corn fields. Parasitized eggs were found from end July to mid-October. In 1986. 76.2% of the egg masses and 42.8% of all eggs were parasitized, while in 1987, respective values were 27.6% and 12.9%. The inferior performance of the parasitoid in 1987 may be due to the unfavorable winter and summer conditions. Parasitism decreased when the host population was at its peak, but it increased again within 1 to 3 weeks. A small percentage of egg masses was completely parasitized (9.5% and 4.7% for the 2 years respectively). In 1987, the sex ratio, ♀♀/♂♂ was 1.5: 1 and 26.2% of the egg masses produced only ♂♂. Mated ♀♀ produced 3 times more ♀♀ than ♂♂. It seems that the parasitoid, under favorable weather conditions, can play a significant role in the control of the corn stalk borer.

    Description: A recent analysis of the Fermi Large Area Telescope data provided evidence for a high-intensity emission of high-energy gamma rays with a E 2 spectrum from two large areas, spanning 50 above and below the Galactic centre (the ‘‘Fermi bubbles’’). A hadronic mechanism was proposed for this gamma-ray emission making the Fermi bubbles promising source candidates of high-energy neutrino emission. In this work Monte Carlo simulations regarding the detectability of high-energy neutrinos from the Fermi bubbles with the future multi-km3 neutrino telescope KM3NeT in the Mediterranean Sea are presented. Under the hypothesis that the gamma-ray emission is completely due to hadronic processes, the results indicate that neutrinos from the bubbles could be discovered in about one year of operation, for a neutrino spectrum with a cutoff at 100 TeV and a detector with about 6 km3 of instrumented volume. The effect of a possible lower cutoff is also considered.
