Observaciones del parasitismo de Palmistichus elaeisis (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) sobre pupas de Quadrus cerialis (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae) en Piper reticulatum (Piperaceae) en la Reserva Biológica Dr. Rodrigo Tarté, Ciudad del Saber, Panamá.

Abstract: En la medida que aumentemos el conocimiento sobre los parasitoides u cualquier enemigo natural, son aportes muy relevantes. Estos grupos de insectos aportan un valor invaluable, ya que ayudan a mantener el equilibrio de las poblaciones de insectos y en especial los insectos plagas en los diferentes ecosistemas terrestres. El objetivo de este trabajo es reportar por primera vez el parasitoide Palmistichus elaeisis (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) sobre pupas de la mariposa Quadrus cerialis (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae) s… Show more

“…Studies about biological aspects and parasitoid specificity of P. obliqua (Murgas 2005(Murgas , 2008, show that most of the adults that emerge from the larvae are females, that could be due to a infection of the symbiotic bacteria, Wolbachia pipientis (Hertig), that is lethal to male parasitoids (stoutahaMer 1997). The presence of Wolbachia in DNA of Bethylidae was reported by Martinelli et al (2017).…”

“…Prosierola is known to attack larvae of Lepidoptera, characteristic found in unusual uniformity in Bethylinae, with most other bethylids preferring coleoptera larvae. P. obliqua is known to parasite the Hesperiidae family, even showing maternal care, staying in hiding with the paralyzed larvae (MueseBeck & Walker 1951;evans 1964;Murgas 2005Murgas , 2008raMos & azevedo 2020). This behavior probably protects the progenie from hyperparasitoids and the larvae from other parasitoids (multi-parasitoidism) (doutt 1973).…”
