Antestia egg parasitoid (Telenomus seychellensis) was studied to establish its parasitism capacity. An increase in the number of Antestia egg parasitoids, T. seychellenis to a fixed number of Antestia eggs reflected an increase in the level of egg parasitism. Varying numbers of Antestia eggs to a fixed number of Antestia egg parasitoids indicated some initial rise in parasitism level that dropped afterwards. Maximum parasitism (100%) was attached at 24 eggs subjected to four Antestia egg parasitoids.
