Carlos Henrique Marchiori

The objective of this paper is to determine the species of Microgastrinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) that occur in the native vegetation and pasture. The experiment was undertaken at the “Fazenda da Faculdade de Agronomia” located in the municipality of Itumbiara, GO. Weekly collections were done using water traps at ground level, 5 placed at the pastures and 5 in the nearby native vegetation. These traps were made of yellow buckets measuring 30 cm in diameter and filled with 2 l of trap water, 2 ml of detergent and 2 ml of formaldehyde. Those collected in the native vegetation were: Apanteles sp., Cotesia sp., Diolcogaster sp., Glyptapanteles sp., Promicrogaster sp. and Pseudapanteles sp.
