Abstract

The percentage of parasitism of Rhopalosiphum maidis Fitch was determined in maize (Zea mays L.) leaves inspected in the field, and its parasitoids were obtained. The percentage of parasitism increased by about 1.5% daily and in the first week of April, it exceeded 70%. Lysiphlebus testaceipes Cresson was the dominant parasitoid of R. maidis (84.2%), with Aphidius smithi Sharma & Subba Rao (4.0%), several Eurytomidae (2.9%), and Figitidae specimens (1.0%).
