Abstract
Two specimens of Anisia optata (Reinhard) were reared from wood cockroaches (Parcoblatta species and possibly Ischnoptera deropeltiformis (Brunner)) collected near Raleigh, North Carolina, in 2001. This is the first host record for A. optata and the first record of cockroach parasitism in the genus Anisia Wulp (Tachinidae, Exoristinae, Blondeliini).
