     There are a few reports that suggest that insect-insect parasite transmission can occur through hemolymphagy, when one insect takes hemolymph from a conspecific [21 ] or during a simultaneous blood feeding [22 ], although the relevance of these alternative transmission routes in parasite circulation has not been established.
