“…Our numbers surpassed only Gadelha et al 20 in which were collected 377 individuals using six malaise traps (type: Towns 1972) for a year. In addition, using 18 modified malaise traps for eight months we were able to record a higher number of subfamilies (21) and genera (65) than that showed by Gadelha et al 20 Furthermore, six subfamilies (Betylobraconinae, Blacinae, Euphorinae, Icneutinae, Mendesellinae and Miracinae) and 38 genera weren't recorded in any of the studies cited above. Were found some potential groups for biological control of citrus pests, mainly inside orchard, for instance, Utetes Forester (Opiinae).…”

“…studied the diversity of parasitoids in general and Gadelha et al 20 studied the diversity of Braconidae in a secondary forest.Regarding the growth of citrus industry on Amazonas state and the importance of Braconidae for the biological control of citrus pests this work aimed to compare the composition of Braconidae fauna on two Citrus orchards and in the surrounding secondary forests and provide information about Braconidae taxonomic fauna as a base for future studies on the implementation of biological control in Amazonian Citrus plantations.…”

The Braconidae composition of two Citrus orchards surrounded by Amazon rainforest was investigated. To compare the composition of Braconidae in orchards and forest were installed eighteen modified Malaise traps distributed in a gradient that started inside the orchard 80 meters from the edge extending up to 80meters from the border inside the forest. The composition of Braconidae differed between forest and orchard, abundance in orchard was lower when compared with the forest and the diversity were higher inside forest. Differences found in the composition is associated with factors such as the presence of hosts in the environment. Was found some potential genera like Utetes, and Pholetesor that can be used in biological control of citrus pests.

“…Few works have studied general Braconidae diversity in the Amazon region, e.g., Gadelha et al (2012) in the Porto Velho Municipal Natural Reserve, Rondônia, and Oliveira et al (2017) in Citrus plantations surrounded by Amazon rainforest. The other studies focus on a specific group of braconids that are parasitoids of frugivorous larvae, e.g., Costa et al (2009) which found seven species of Braconidae in the Adolpho Ducke Forest Reserve in Manaus.…”

“…Distribuem-se por 11 superfamílias e 48 famílias (HANSON; GAULD, 2006) e sua presença aumenta a complexidade dos ecossistemas (FEITOSA et al, 2007). Em ambientes naturais, é comum a presença de himenópteros parasitoides atacando insetos predadores de sementes, sendo importantes na regulação de suas populações (GOULET;HUBER, 1993;GILLOTT, 2005), tanto em sistemas agrícolas, quanto naturais (GADELHA et al, 2012).…”

ResumoEste estudo teve como objetivo estimar a quantidade média de sementes de Erythrina falcata consumida por larvas de Agathodes designalis (Guenée, 1854), Liopasia ochracealis (Walker 1865) e Terastia meticulosalis (Guenée, 1854) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae) que predam suas sementes. As larvas de lepidópteros foram coletadas de vagens de E. falcata em ambiente natural, individualizadas em placas de Petri e alimentadas com sementes imaturas. O número médio de sementes predadas variou de duas, para A. designalis a cinco para L. ochracealis. O parasitismo de Macrocentrus sp. (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) em larvas de T. meticulosalis, é relatado pela primeira vez. Os resultados demonstram que a ação do parasitoide é um dos fatores que influencia nas taxas de predação de sementes de E. falcata por larvas de lepidópteros no ambiente natural. Palavras-chave:Interação inseto-planta; Mata Atlântica; Macrocentrus; Terastia meticulosalis AbstractPredation of Erythrina falcata Benth. (Fabaceae, Faboideae) seeds by larvae of three species of Lepidoptera (Crambidae) and the effect of parasitoids on the predation. This study aimed to estimate the average number of seeds of Erythrina falcata eaten by larvae of Agathodes designalis (Guenée, 1854), Liopasia ochracealis (Walker 1865) and Terastia meticulosalis (Guenée, 1854) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae), which prey on the seeds of this species. The lepidopteran larvae were collected in the field from fruits of E. falcata, isolated in Petri dishes, and fed with immature seeds. The average number of seeds preyed upon by the larvae ranged from two (A. designalis) to five (L. ochracealis). This work is also the first report of the parasitism of Macrocentrus sp. (Hymenoptera, Brachonidae) on larvae of T. meticulosalis. The results demonstrate that this parasitism is one of the factors that influence the rates of seed predation of E. falcata by lepidopteran larvae in the natural environment.
