Nezara viridula L. and Euschistos servos (Say) are the predominant species of phytophagous stink bugs on corn, Zea mays L, in Georgia. Oebalus pugnax pugnax (F.) occurs in relatively low numbers, and the predatory stink bug Podisus maculiventrus (Say) is commonly found. Limited information is available on natural biological control of these four stink bug species in Georgia corn fields, therefore, a 6-yr study of parasitism and predation of their eggs was initiated in 2003 Naturally occurring stink bug eggs were parasitized by six sceliomd species, Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston), T thyantae Ashmead, T brochymenae (Ashmead), T euschisti (Ashmead), Telenomus podisi Ashmead, Telenomus calms. Johnson, and one encyrtid species, Ooencyrtus sp T basalis was the most prevalent parasitoid of N viridula, parasitizing E servos. and P maculiventris eggs at low levels. T podisz, the predominant parasitoid species emerging from eggs of E. servos and P nzaculwentris, also parasitized 0 p pognax eggs exclusively and parasitized N viridula eggs at low levels. T euschisti and T thyantae parasitized E servos egg masses. T brochymenae parasitized eggs of both E servos and P macohvenms T calms parasitized only P macoliventris eggs. The same species of egg parasitoids that parasitized naturally occurring eggs of N virohda and E servos parasitized sentinel eggs of these bugs, except that no T calvos and Ooencyrtus sp were obtained from sentinel eggs, and T thyantae and T brochymenae emerged from sentinel eggs of N on-Kilda Generally, parasitization of an egg mass was either greater than or equal to predation of sentinel eggs of N viridola and E servos. However, on some dates in late June and July, predation of sentinel egg masses was numerically approximately twice as high as parasitism Results indicate stink bug egg parasitoids and predators are significant factors in the natural biological control of stink bugs in corn fields.
