Abstract

The European pepper moth Duponcheliafovealis Zeller (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is reported for the first time in South America, in the State of Paraná, Brazil. D.fovealis causes damage to strawberries and weakens the plants. Three natural enemies controlling D.fovealis were found and identified as Apanteles sp. (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), Hyaliodocoris insignis (Heteroptera: Miridae) and the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana.<br />El primer reporte de Duponchelia fovealis Zeller (Lepidoptera:Crambidae) fue por daños a la fresa (Fragaria x ananassa) en América del Sur en el Estado del Paraná, Brasil.
