ABSTRACT

This study reports, for the first time, the occurrence of Eurytoma sp. (Hymenoptera Pteromalidae) as parasitoid of Fannia pusio (Wiedemann) (Diptera Fanniidae) found in chicken dung in Itumbiara, Goiás, Brazil. Manure samples, collected at two weeks intervals, were taken to the laboratory and the pupae were extracted by water flotation. Each pupa was placed in capsules of colorless gelatin until the emergence of dipterous or their parasitoids. The parasitism was 1.3 percent
