Abstract

Gall-forming species (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) and parasitoids (Hymenoptera) associated with Guapira opposita (Vell.) Reitz. (Nyctaginaceae) at Restinga of Barra de Marid, Rio de Janeiro. Three different galls of Bruggmannia spp. (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) on Guapira opposita (Vell.) Reitz. (Nyctaginaceae) were studied at Restinga ofBarra de Maricá, State ofRio de Janeiro. Thirty parasitoid species are associated to these galls. Most ofthem is generalist and solitary. Hyperpa- rasitoidism is common. The trophic relations among gall makers and parasitoids are presented.
