Abstract: Through the behavioral observation of Ficus curtipes fig wasps and
 the counting of various kinds of flowerets in F. curtipes figs, the oviposi
tion tim
ing and community structure of 12 F. curtipes fig wasp species were studied.
 Bes
ides the agaonid wasp Eupristina sp., the two non-agaonid wasps Diaziella
 yangi and Lipothymus sp. could enter into F. curtipes figs and ovipos
it. The other nin
e non-agaonid fig wasps (Walkerella sp., Micranisa sp., Sycophilomorp
ha sp., Philotrypesis sp., Sycosapter sp., Sycobia sp., Ficomila
 sp., Ormyrus sp. and Sycophila sp.) oviposited outside the figs. In
the fig wasp community, Eupristina sp. was the dominant species, accounting
for 6211% of the total, D. yangi and Lipothymus sp. accounted for 27
19% and 471%, respectively, while the other nine non-agaonid fig wasp species
 only occupied 599%. The non-agaonid fig wasps produced their progeny through
 the reproduction strategies of oviposition timing and diet allocation of female
 flowerets, so as to sustain the fig-wasp mutualism. The individuals of non-ag
aonid fig wasp progeny had significant negative correlati
on with those of agaonid fig wasp progeny, but no correlation with F. curtipes
 seed production.

Key words: Ficus curtipes, agaonid fig wasp, non-agaonid fig wasp, oviposition timing, community, rice, yield, yield component, meteorological factor.
