Abstract

The Ichneumonid, E. argenteopilosus was found active from 50th MW (10-16 December) till 3rd MW (15-21 January) of H. armigera and the highest parasitization of early instar larvae was in 52nd MW (22.50 percent). The second Ichneumonid, C. chlorideae was observed from 51st MW (17-23 December) until 3rd MW (15-21 January) and caused 8.11 to 11.54 per cent parasitization. E. argenteopilosus was dominant parasitoid in chickpea contributed near about half of total mortality. A Tachinid fly was also found associated with the late instar larval and pupal parasitization
