          Abstract

          Resumen Las moscas taquínidas son importantes parasitoides que regulan naturalmente la densidad poblacional de diversas plagas agrícolas. Este trabajo de investigación tuvo por objetivo identificar a los parasitoides Tachinidae emergidos de la chinche Euschistus heros procedente de recolectas hechas en cultivo de soja de la localidad de Fortuna, municipio de Pedro Juan Caballero, Departamento de Amambay, Paraguay. Los insectos fueron criados y mantenidos en el laboratorio de Protección Vegetal, división Entomología de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, de la Universidad Nacional de Asunción. Se observó que de las chinches surgieron larvas y pupas, de las cuales emergieron moscas (n = 7). Los especímenes en tubos de vidrio se conservaron en alcohol 70 % y se enviaron para su identificación y clasificación taxonómica al laboratorio de Sistemática y Biogeografía de Diptera del Departamento de Zoología del Instituto de Biociências de la Universidad de São Paulo, Brasil. La mosca parasitoide emergida fue identificada como Gymnoclytia (Diptera: Tachinidae), siendo el primer registro para el cultivo de soja en Paraguay, un importante agente de control biológico que puede favorecer el equilibrio natural de la densidad poblacional de E. heros.

          Abstract Tachinid flies are important parasitoids of many pests. The purpose of this study was to identify the parasitoid emerged from the brown stinkbug Euschistus heros (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) from collection done at the town of Fortuna, Pedro Juan Caballero municipality, Amambay State, Paraguay. The bugs were collected in the field on soybeans and were taken to the laboratory for breeding, feeding and maintenance, and checked for the presence of tachinids at the Entomological and Crop Protection Department of the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, National University of Asuncion. The insects were inspected daily, and the emergence of pupating larvae was observed from them. The fly puparia were maintained until the emergence of the adult fly (n = 7). Specimens were kept in glass tubes with a 70 % alcohol solution and then sent to the laboratory of Systematic and Biogeography of Diptera at the Zoology Department, Biosciences Institute, University of de São Paulo, Brazil for identification. The parasitoid fly that emerged was identified as Gymnoclytia (Diptera: Tachinidae), the first report for soybean in Paraguay, an important natural biological control agent that might balance the population density of E. heros.

            History of tachinid classification (Diptera, Tachinidae)

            Abstract The history of the classification of the Tachinidae (Diptera) is traced from Meigen to the present. The contributions of Robineau-Desvoidy, Townsend, Villeneuve, Mesnil, Herting, Wood and many others are discussed within a chronological, taxonomic, and geographic context. The gradual development of the Tachinidae into its modern concept as a family of the Oestroidea and the emergence of the classificatory scheme of tribes and subfamilies in use today are reviewed. Certain taxa that have in the past been difficult to place, or continue to be of uncertain affinity, are considered and some are given in a table to show their varied historical treatments. The more significant systematic works published on the Tachinidae in recent decades are enumerated chronologically.
