Conteúdo: | Investigations carried out in Thikodi (Keralta State) have shown that Apanteles taragamae is an efficient bio-control agent of Opisina arenosella. The mean percentage of its parasitism on O. arenosella in the study area for the year 1983-84 is 8. With 50% honey adult parasites showed a longevity of 12 days. Total duration of life stages from egg to adult emergence is completed in 21.63 mais ou menos 3.65 days. Eclosion takes place at 30 th hour of incubation. The larval, prepupal and pupal periods are completed in 13, 1 and 6 days, respectively. Field data on the rate of parasitism caused by A. taragamae indicate its promising potentiality as a bio-control agent of the pest. The efficiency of this parasitoid is assessd in comparison to the other larval  parasitoids of O. arenosella.
