INTERACTION BETWEEN TELENOMUS REMUS NIXON (HYMENOPTERA: SCELIONIDAE) AND DORU LUTEIPES SCUDDER (DERMAPTERA: FORFICULIDAE) ON SPODOPTERA FRUGIPERDA (J.E. SMITH) (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE) EGGS

ABSTRACT This work aimed at evaluating the interaction between Telenomus remus andD. luteipes. S. frugiperda eggs previously parasitized by T. remus were offered to D. luteipes and D. luteipes eggs were offered to T. remus. To study the influence of different embryonic development stages of the parasitoid, we offered S. frugiperda previously parasitized eggs at different embryonic development stages to the predator. And we offered predator eggs at different embryonic development stages to the parasitoid. The behavior of insects was observed. When S. frugiperda eggs were exposed to T. remus previously, D. luteipes eat the eggs until three days after parasitism. T. remus parasitized D. luteipes eggs until 48h they were laid, but only when predator females were absent.
