Data on the habitats, phenology, the development cycle and host plants of the Far Eastern subspecies of the dock bug, Coreus marginatus orientalis (Kiritshenko, 1916) (Heteroptera, Coreidae), in the south of Primorskii Territory are presented. New fodder plants for C. m. orientalis were revealed. Parasitic dipterans of the family Tachinidae were bred by keeping the bugs in the laboratory. For the first time information on parasitization of C. m. orientalis by tachinids of five species of the genera Clytiomya , Ectophasia , Elomya and Phasia of the subfamily Phasiinae is presented. For three tachinid species C. marginatus is a new host.
