Abstract

Ichneumonids (Hymenoptera : Ichneumonidae) are very good biocontrol agents of forest insect pests. Therefore, as part of conservation and protection of flora of Western Ghats, biodiversity of Ichneumonid flies has been studied from Western Ghats, Maharashtra. In all, 35 species belonging to genera Diadegma, Isotima, Goryphus, Charops, Campoletis, Enicospilus, Pimpla,
Xanthopimpla, Eriborus, Netelia and Ecthromorpha have been reported parasitizing lepidopterous pests of forest trees
