ABSTRACT

Natural enemies associated to Diaphorina citri in the state of Nayarit were identified. The study was carried out in three orchards of Persian lime from May to October 2011. The identified depredator species were Olla v-nigrum, Chilocorus cacti, Cycloneda sanguine, and Ceraeochrysa sp.; as well as the parasitoid Tamarixia radiata and the entomopathogenic Beauveria bassiana. Nephus sp. Mulsant, 1850 and Pentilia sp. Mulsant, 1850 are new distribution records to Mexico.
