This paper reports the first occurrence of the parasitoid Leptopilina boulardi Barbotin et al. (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Eucoilinae) collected in pupae of Zaprionus indianus Gupta (Diptera: Drosophilidae) using traps baited with fruits (pear, apple and banana). The experiment was undertaken at the Faculdade de Agronomia do Instituto Luterano de Ensino Superior (experimental campus), Itumbiara, Goiás, between March and November 2001. A total of 03 specimens were obtained from 139 Z. indianus pupae. The overall prevalence of parasitism was of 2.2%.
