Natural occurence of parasitoids of Leptoglossus zonatus (Dallas) (Heteroptera: Coreidae)

Eggs and adults of Leptoglossus zonatus (Dallas) showing parasitism evidence were collected from corn fields in the regions of Campinas and Santa Maria da Serra (both of State of São Paulo, Brazil) and transferred to the laboratory. About 64% of the eggs of L. zonatus yielded adults of the parasitoid Gryon sp. (Hymenoptera, Scelionidae). The adult coreids were parasitized by Trichopoda pennipes Fabricius (Diptera: Tachinidae).
