Abstract

SEGADE, Carolina B. GÓMEZ et al. Primer registro de Spalangia endius (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) asociado a Drosophila suzukii (Díptera: Drosophilidae) en cultivos de fruta fina y de carozo de la Patagonia Norte (Argentina). Rev. Soc. Entomol. Argent. [online]. 2021, vol.80, n.2, pp.48-52. ISSN 0373-5680.  http://dx.doi.org/doi.org/10.25085/rsea.800209.

We report for the first time, the presence of parasitoid Spalangia endius Walker (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) in association with the invasive fly Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in the region of North Patagonia (Argentina). This finding is a contribution to the study of natural enemies of this major pest in berries and stone-fruit crops. Briefly, we describe the diagnosis and prevalence of the parasitoid.
