ABSTRACT
Studies on the occurrence of S. frugiperda (FAW) and its natural enemies were conducted in fixed plots at MARS, Dharwad, Karnataka. An attempt was made to record potential natural enemies on in maize ecosystem during 2020-21. Egg mass was collected and kept in the laboratory, observations were recorded on the number of adult parasitoids that emerged from egg mass, and the percentage parasitisation were recorded. The present study reports new associations of natural enemies on FAW in India with reference to the northern Karnataka. Study revealed that the egg parasiotid, Telonomus spp (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) was noticed; as potential egg parasitoid on Fall armyworm (FAW) which accounted for 10-11 per cent parasitisation at field level. Study on species level description is under process, specimen was collected has been sent to experts for their identification. Further identification of natural enemies and preserving the existing ones, through ecofriendly practices and judicial use of pesticides, allowing them to function effectively, which leads to effective management of FAW.
