    The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of the lace bug Pseudacysta perseae and to identify their natural enemies in avocado orchards in the state of Nayarit, Mexico; weekly sampling was conducted on 30 commercial orchards with Hass, Hall and Choquette avocado cultivars in the municipalities of Xalisco, Tepic and San Blas, from January to July 2016. The specimens collected were transferred to the Laboratory of Agricultural Parasitology of the Universidad Autónoma de Nayarit - UAN, and subsequently were individually separated to obtain parasitoids, predators and entomopathogenic fungi. Out of a total of 30 sampled areas, only P. perseae was recorded in 20 of the orchards, with an average infestation level of 434 eggs, 107 nymphs and 23 adults per site. A total of 175 natural enemy specimens were identified, of which 61 were parasitoids belonging to Trichogrammatidae family, 58 adults of P. perseae with symptomatology of fungal infection, identified morphological and molecularly as Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana, with incidences of 3.0 % and 9.4 %, respectively. In addition, 56 predators were caught belonging to the species Cycloneda sanguinea, Stethorus sp. and Pentilia sp.

    Macromorphology and radial growth of entomopathogenic fungi strains suplement with lepidoteran poder.
    (Universidad del Valle, 2020-07-09) García Gutiérrez, Cipriano; García Guajardo, Marina Isabel; Vejar Cota, Guadalupe; Meza García, Lorenzo; Chávez Medina, Jesús Alicia; Sociedad Colombiana de Entomología - Socolen; Universidad del Valle; Montoya Lerma, James
    The macromorphology of Beauveria bassiana (B1), Metarhizium anisopliae (M1) and Isaria javanica (HPI-210) strains was studied, as well as its radial growth at temperatures of 25, 28, 30, 35 and 40 °C in PDA medium supplemented with powder of Diatraea considerata, Spodoptera frugiperda and Galleria mellonella. The fungi were inoculated by adding 2 µl of a suspension with 1 x 107 spores/ml. Afterwards the radial strains growth in mm/d was measured during 15 d. To determine the interaction between the three strains, the three lepidopteran powders, control PDA and the five temperatures, a factorial analysis 3 x 4 x 5 was used; fungi growth data was analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test. The macromorphological characteristics of each species were studied, finding significant statistical differences in the growth at different temperatures, with respect to the control. The optimal growth for the three fungi was at 28 °C. Strain B1 supplemented with D. considerata powder grew 2.76 ± 0.06 mm/d, M1, G. mellonella 2.77 ± 0.02 mm/d and M1 HPI-210 D. considerata 3.27 ± 0.06 mm/d. Strains B1 grew 0.45 ± 0.03 mm/d and M1 1.22 ± 0.03 at 30 °C, while HPI-210 did not grow after 28 °C. These results suggested that the strains were induced by medium contained insect supplementation; at 28 °C, HPI-210 obtained the best growth/d (F = 25.24, E8, P = 0.0001), followed by M1 and B1, while M1 supplemented with S. frugiperda grew best at 30 °C (F = 38.33, E8, P = 0.0001). These results of radial growth, macromorphology and tolerance of strains at temperature, allow the selection of the best strains to assess its virulence in insect pests.
