Content of review 1, reviewed on April 13, 2015

In their data note Calla and colleagues present a transcriptome dataset of the parasitoid wasp Fopius arisanus.

This note is original and the presented data constitutes the first sequences resource for this hymenopteran species. The presented data are very useful for the scientific community for gene annotation and to study the molecular basis of the interaction between F. arisanus and its target species of the dipteran Tephritidae family.

This data note is very well written and I agree to publication on your journal with very few Discretionary revisions.

Minor Essential Revisions 1_Line 72: Clearly indicate the stagesof the larval and pupal stages obtained.

2_Lines 79-80: Report the quality control results (RIN, etc.) obtained for each RNA.

Level of interest An article of importance in its field Quality of written English Acceptable Statistical review No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a statistician. Declaration of competing interests I declare that I have no competing interests.
