The aim of this paper was to evaluate the biological characteristics and the capacity of 20 strains of Trichogramma pretiosum R. (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) to accept and develop through the eggs of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidóptera: Noctuidae). The strains Lsg1, Lsg11 and Lsg18 were more effective in parasitizing and developing through the eggs of S. frugiperda. The strains Lsg11 and Lsg18 presented a great aggressiveness and preference for the natural host even after having been developed for several generations in alternative host, Anagasta kuehniella Zeller.Downloads
