The egg parasitpoids Trichogramma danausicida (Nagaraja) and Trichogramma cacaeciae (Marchal) (Hyme­noptera: Trichogrammatidae), are reported for the first time in Israel. Moreover, our discovery of T. danau­sicida is the first report of this parasitoid species outside of India. The occurrence of those trichogrammatids was first discovered and documented in May 2016 during a survey of egg parasitoids of the False codling moth Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). The field survey was conducted on castor bean fruits (Ricinus communis) in the Israeli central coastal plain. The identity of the parasitoids was revealed by means of sequencing a portion of the cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI) of the studied parasitoids.
