    Due to the importance of Microtheca ochroloma (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) as an insect-pest of Brassicaceae and to the lack of data regarding its natural enemies, the present research aims to report the first occurrence of Stiretrus decastigmus (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) preying M. ochroloma in Brassica chinensis L., at Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil (latitude: 29°43'28"S, longitude: 53°43'19"O, height: 95m). The collecting methodology and morphologic characteristics of the insects found were also described.

    Pentatomidae; predators; Chrysomelidae
