Abstract

This study had the objective of determining the species of microhimenopterous in pupae of Diptera present in cattle dung, collected in the county of Itumbiara, GO, Cachoeira Dourada, GO and Panamá, GO, from January 1998 to June 2004. The dipterous pupae were obtained by the flotation method. They were individually placed in gelatin capsules until the emergence of the flies and/or their parasitoids. The overall prevalence of parasitism was 7.36%. The species more frequent were: Spalangia drosophilae Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) with 30.8% e Triplasta atrocoxalis Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) with 16.2%.
