Hosts. Delphacidae (Guglielmino & Olmi, 1997, 2006): in China: Saccharosydne procerus (Metsumura) (He & Xu, 2002); in France: Javesella pellucida (Fabricius), Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén); in Guam (Mariana Islands): Tarophagus proserpina (Kirkaldy); in Italy: Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén), Megadelphax sordidulus (Stål); in Japan: Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén) (Esaki & Hashimoto, 1932; Mita et al., 2012), Hosunka hakonensis (Matsumura) (Mita et al., 2012), Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), Sogatella furcifera (Horváth) (Kitamura, 1982) (see remarks after the key to the Oriental species of Haplogonatopus); in South Korea: Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén); in Siberia (Russia): Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén); in Turkey: Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén), Toya propinqua (Fieber); in Ukraina: Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén).
Biology. Information on the biology in Japan by Nishioka (1980), Kitamura (1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1987a, 1987b, 1987c, 1989a, 1989b), Yamada (1996), Yamada & Miyamoto (1998), Yamada & Kawamura (1999), Yamada & Kitashiro (2002), Yamada & Watanabe (2002), Yamada & Sugaura (2003) and Mita et al. (2012). The papers of Koyama (1989, 1991a, 1991b, 1993), Koyama et al. (1988, 1989), Koyama & Mitsuhashi (1989, 1990a, 1990b) and Abe & Koyama (1991) are of difficult interpretation, because the above authors mistook Haplogonatopus atratus Esaki & Hashimoto (= H. oratorius) for Gonatopus lucens (Olmi). Their data are related to G. lucens if the hosts are Cicadellidae, to H. atratus if the hosts are Delphacidae. This mistake is common to other authors. In the Oriental region, Chandra mistook Haplogonatopus apicalis R. Perkins (attacking Delphacidae) for G. lucens (Olmi) (attacking Cicadellidae). In the environments of Viterbo (Central Italy) H. oratorius overwinters as cocoon, rarely as larva in parasitized planthoppers. In Japan, it overwinters as larva in nymphs of L. striatellus (Mita et al., 2012). In Japan, Kitamura (1989a) reported the presence of overwintering nymphs and a relatively high ratio of parasitism (9–34%) by H. oratorius from winter to spring in Shimane (Mita et al., 2012).
Natural enemies. According to Xu & He (2003) H. oratorius can be parasitized in China, Fujian, by Cheiloneurus exitiosus (R. Perkins) (= Echthrogonatopus lateocaudatus Xu & He, 2003).
Distribution. China (Fujian, Guangdong, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Zhejiang), Japan (Ryukyus, Ogasawara), in addition to Mariana Islands (Guam) and many countries of Eastern (Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Xinjiang, Shandong (China); Honshu (Japan); Siberia (Russia); South Korea) and Western Palaearctic region (from Spain to European Russia).
