==Reproduction== Glyptapanteles phytometrae and host Chrysodeixis chalcites|thumb|left Female Glyptapanteles oviposit into caterpillar hosts. The caterpillar continues to grow and feed normally until the 4th or 5th instar, whereupon up to 80 fully grown larvae emerge from its body to pupate. Some species parasitized by Glyptapanteles include Lymantria dispar, Chrysodeixis chalcites, Thyrinteina leucocerae (both pictured), and Acronicta rumicis.
