A total of 2,630 braconids from Anastrepha spp. were recovered in four locations of two counties (Manaus and Iranduba) in Amazonas State, Brazil. The parasitoids belong to five species. Opius sp. was the predominant species, showing the highest frequency in the downtown region of Manaus. On the other hand, Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti, 1911) was the predominant species in the countryside. For the faunistic analysis, each collecting site was considered a community. The coefficient of similarity between communities varied from 82 to 100%.
