Marchiori, C.H.Caldas, E.R.Almeida, K.G.S.

This work reports the occurrence of microhimenopterous in cattle dung in Itumbiara, Goiás, Brazil. Cattle dung pats were exposed on a pasture for 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216 and 240 hours and were then separately taken to the laboratory for artropods extraction. A total of 100 dung pats were exposed at pasture. The pupae were individually placed in transparent gelatin capsules until the emergence of the parasitoids. The main species of parasitoids collected from bovine dung were Paraganapis egeria and Spalangia drosophilae.
