This study records the occurrence of eucoilines (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), parasitoids of the African fig fly Zaprionus indianus Gupta (Diptera: Drosophilidae), in the Brazilian semi-arid Caatinga biome. We obtained from mango (Mangifera indica L.) and guava (Psidium guajava L.) fruits Drosophilidae pupae, which developed into Z. indianus and two species of Eucoilinae parasitoids, Dicerataspis grenadensis Ashmead and Leptopilina boulardi (Barbotin, Carlton & Kelner-Pillaut). This is the first record of the parasitoids D. grenadensis and L. boulardi in the Caatinga biome.

Com este estudo, objetivou-se verificar a freqüência de parasitismo de microhimenópteros Eucoilinae (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), parasitando espécies de dípteros, que se desenvolvem em fezes de bovinos, em Panamá, Estado de Goiás, de maio a dezembro de 2003. As pupas dos hospedeiros foram isoladas pelo método de flutuação e individualizadas em cápsulas de gelatina até a emergência das moscas e/ou dos seus parasitóides. A freqüência de parasitismo apresentada por Kleidotoma nigra (HARTIG, 1840), Paraganaspis egeria (DÍAZ, GALLARDO e WALSH, 1996), Triplasta atrocoxalis (ASHMEAD, 1895) e Triplasta coxalis (ASHMEAD, 1895) foi de 6,45%, 3,33%, 3,33% e 13,33%, respectivamente.This study had the objective of verifying the frequency of microhymenopterous Eucoilinae (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) parasitizing dipterous species developing in cattle dung, in Panamá, Goiás State, from May to December 2003. The hosts pupae were obtained by the flotation method and individually placed in gelatin capsules until the emergency of the adult flies or their parasitoids. The frequencies of parasitism by Kleidotoma nigra (HARTIG, 1840), Paraganaspis egeria (DÍAZ, GALLARDO and WALSH, 1996), Triplasta atrocoxalis (ASHMEAD, 1895) and Triplasta coxalis (ASHMEAD, 1895) were 6.45%, 3.33%, 3.33% and 13.33%, respectively.

This work reports the first occurrence of Zaeucoila triangulifera Kieffer, 1907 (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Eucoilinae) in Brazil. Weekly collections were carried out from February to October 2002 using 10 yellow buckets of 30cm in diameter and 8cm in height. Two liters of tap water, 2mL of detergent, and 2mL of formaldehyde were put into each bucket. Four specimens of Z. triangulifera were collected.
