Abstract
Summary The detection of native natural enemies that can use Cactoblastis cactorum as a host is relevant after its invasion of North America. We detected wasps (Scelionidae) parasitizing eggs of Melitara cf. junctolineella (a closely related cactus moth in the Phycitini) in Bustamante, Nuevo Leon, northeastern Mexico. This is the first report of Scelionidae parasitizing eggs of phycitine cactus moths. The capability of this wasp to parasitize C. cactorum eggs should be investigated. Sumario La detección de enemigos naturales nativos que pueden utilizar a Cactoblastis cactorum como hospedero, es relevante tras su invasión a Norteamérica. Detectamos avispas (Scelionidae) parasitando huevos de Melitara cf. junctolineella (una polilla del cactus en Phycitini estrechamente relacionada con C. cactorum) en Bustamante, Nuevo Leon, noreste de México. Este es el primer reporte de Scelionidae parasitando huevos de polillas del cactus (Phycitini). Debe investigarse la capaci-dad de esta avispa para parasitar los huevos de C. cactorum.

Florida Entomologist is the official journal of the Florida Entomological Society. Volumes 1-3 were published under the name The Florida Buggist. The Florida Entomological Society still produces the traditionally printed version of Florida Entomologist, but you can also view, search, or print any article published since June 1917 by accessing online files. Web access is made possible by the Society’s electronic publication project begun in 1993
