Two Populations

Individuals of two populations of Trichogramma maxacalii (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) were collected from eggs of Euselasia apisaon (Lepidoptera: Riodinidae), a lepidopteran defoliator of Eucalyptus, in plantations in the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, Brazil. This study investigated the sex ratio, number of parasitoids per egg, and longevity of individuals of these two populations of T. maxacalii, when this parasitoid was reared receiving eggs of the factitious host Anagasta kuehniella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in different periods after emergence, and with or without honey. Sex ratio of T. maxacalii varied from 0.44 to 0.60, and was affected by the interaction between populations, availability of food (honey), and length of time in which the parasitoid stayed without host eggs after their emergence. The population of T. maxacalii collected in São Paulo produced a larger number of individuals per egg of the host A. kuehniella and lived longer when fed.

A biologia de Hippodamia convergens Guérin-Meneville foi estudada utilizando-se ovos de Anagasta kuehniella (Zeller) como alimento das larvas, em comparação com dieta comumente utilizada, constituída de adultos dos pulgões Schizaphis graminum (Rondani) e Brachycaudus (Appelia) schwartzi Börner. Para os adultos do predador, utilizaram-se adultos do pulgão S. graminum. Os experimentos foram conduzidos a 25 ± 1°C, UR de 70 ± 10% e fotofase de 12 h. O período embrionário, quando as larvas foram alimentadas com as três dietas foi de 3,1; 3,2 e 3,2 dias respectivamente. A duração do período de larva a adulto foi maior na dieta constituída de ovos de A. kuehniella (19,5 dias), entretanto a viabilidade para esse período não diferiu entre as três dietas testadas. Para a fase adulta do predador oriundo de larvas criadas sob os três regimes alimentares, todos os parâmetros reprodutivos e a longevidade foram estatisticamente iguais. Assim, verificou-se que ovos de A. kuehniella podem ser considerados uma dieta em potencial, em substituição aos pulgões S. graminum e B. schwartzi na criação de larvas de H. convergens.

Eriopis connexa (Germar) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) occurs in several countries of South America and its mass rearing is important for biological control programmes. This work evaluated biological aspects of E. connexa larva fed on eggs of Anagasta kuehniella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) and Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) frozen for one day, fresh eggs of Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), S. frugiperda newly-hatched caterpillars, nymphs of Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) and Schizaphis graminum (Rondani) (Hemiptera: Aphididae). Duration of larva, pupa and larva to adult stages differed among prey offered, whereas the prepupa stage was similar. Larva, pupa, prepupa and larva to adult viabilities were equal or major of 87.5% in all prey, except for larva fed on newly-hatched larvae of S. frugiperda. Eriopis connexa has good adaptation to different prey corroborating its polyphagous feeding habit, which evidences the potential of this natural enemy for controlling corn and sorghum pests.
