“…These surveys, however, are often restricted to technical bulletins or project reports (PROINPA 2013 ). Surveys of predators and parasitoids have been carried out throughout Latin America for pests belonging to different orders, such as Lepidoptera (Gómez-Jiménez 2018 ; Vargas 2018 – Colombia; Ribeiro et al 2015 – Uruguay), Hemiptera (Pavis et al 2003 – Guadaloupe; Ribeiro and Castiglioni 2008 – Uruguay; Gaimari, et al 2012 – Colombia), and Diptera (Ovruski et al 2000 – Latin America and Southern United States; García-Cancino et al 2015 – Mexico; Hernandez-Mahecha et al 2018 – Colombia) in addition to other herbivorous insects. Also in Paraguay, surveys of NE have been carried out in small areas, on crops such as peanuts, sesame, beans, and corn (Cabral-Antúnez, et al 2020 ).…”

The history and recent developments of conservation biological control (CBC) in the context of industrialized and small-scale agriculture are discussed from theoretical framework available in the Neotropical region. A historical perspective is presented in terms of the transition of the way pests have been controlled since ancestral times, while some of these techniques persist in some areas cultivated on a small-scale agriculture. The context of industrialized agriculture sets the stage for the transition from chemical pesticides promoted in the green revolution to the more modern concept of IPM and finds in conservation biological an important strategy in relation to more sustainable pest management options meeting new consumer demands for cleaner products and services. However, it also noted that conservation, considered within a more integrative approach, establishes its foundations on an overall increase in floral biodiversity, that is, transversal to both small-scale and industrialized areas. In the latter case, we present examples where industrialized agriculture is implementing valuable efforts in the direction of conservation and new technologies are envisioned within more sustainable plant production systems and organizational commitment having that conservation biological control has become instrumental to environmental management plans. In addition, a metanalysis on the principal organisms associated with conservation efforts is presented. Here, we found that hymenopteran parasitoids resulted in the most studied group, followed by predators, where arachnids constitute a well-represented group, while predatory vertebrates are neglected in terms of reports on CBC. Our final remarks describe new avenues of research needed and highlight the need of cooperation networks to propose research, public outreach, and adoption as strategic to educate costumers and participants on the importance of conservation as main tool in sustainable pest management.

The following four species new to science are described: Platygaster azarbaijanica Buhl & Asadi sp. nov., Platygaster lotfalizadehi Buhl & Asadi sp. nov., Platygaster karimpouri Asadi & Buhl sp. nov. and Synopeas calecai Buhl & Asadi sp. nov. Diagnostic characters are discussed, and figures are provided to distinguish the new species. In addition, ten species of Platygastrinae Howard, 1892 belonging to the genera Platygaster Latreille, 1809, Synopeas Förster, 1856 and Leptacis Förster, 1856 are reported as new records for the fauna of Iran. Four species of Platygaster and one species of Synopeas are recorded as ʻconferʼ.

“…En Colombia, Perú y particularmente Ecuador, su ocurrencia causa grandes pérdidas económicas, principalmente, en cultivos de tomate. Siendo una especie potencialmente invasiva que, se encuentra distribuida en norte y sur América, y las islas del Caribe (Hernández et al, 2018). Los daños son ocasionados por larvas en sus dos primeros instares (Cardona et al, 2010) en tejidos tiernos, brotes, flores y frutos, con pérdidas de hasta 100% de la cosecha (Cañarte et al, 2015).…”

The insect pest, Prodiplosis longifila Gagné (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), causes significant damage and losses in tomato crops in Manabí, Ecuador. The objective of this study was to characterize the current situation in tomato-growing areas of this province, in the cantons of Tosagua, Portoviejo, Rocafuerte, Bolivar, Sucre, Santa Ana, Jipijapa and Junin. A survey was applied to 35 producers, 15 technicians and 10 women workers, on production systems, problems and management of P. longifila, environmental and socioeconomic incidences. The analysis was deductive and inductive, and correlation, principal component analysis and hierarchical conglomerate analysis were also carried out. 100% of the producers indicated that P. longifila is the main pest, its control depends on agrochemicals and the climate has an impact on the problems it causes. Eighty-seven percent of the technicians reported severe damage to flowering and fruiting; 66% indicated that control of the pest cost up to 45% of the total cost of production. 14% abandoned the crop because of high infestation. 100% of the women did tie-up work, and 80% did pruning and harvesting. It is concluded that the main pest of tomato is P. longifila, reaching its maximum incidence and severity in flowering and fruiting and its control is exclusively with agrochemicals.
