Abstract

The presence of six genera of parasitoid insects of quinoa moth larvae: Eurysacca melanocampta Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) in eight locations of Cusco is reported. The genera recovered are: Apanteles, Bassus, Bracon and Macrocentrus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), Diadegma (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) and Phytomyptera (Diptera: Tachinidae). The species Apanteles sp. and Phytomyptera sp. were found in all the visited location. The greatest diversity (Simpson 1-D) was observed in Izcuchaca (Anta province) followed by Quiquijana and Maranganí (Canchis province). The structure of the parasitoid communities is different for each evaluated location.
