Abstract
This survey of the entomological parasitoids and predators attacking the borers infesting fruit and wood trees is the pioneer in Egypt. Thirty one species of parasitoids belonged to 9 families of order Hymenoptera and one family of order Coleoptera, besides 18 species of predators belonged to 4 families of order Coleoptera were recorded. These parasitoides and predators were detected on some wood —boring insects which belonged to 6 Coleopterous families (Scolytidae, Buprestidae, Cerambyddae, Bostrychidae, Ahobiidae and lyctidae). Recorded families of parasitoides were Pteromalidae (6 species), Eurytomidae (2 species), Eupelmidae (one species) Chalcididae (5 species), Eulophidae (one species), Bethylidae (3species), Ichneumonidae (3 species), Braconidae (8 species), Sderoblgidae (one species) and Dermestidae (one species), while the recorded families of predators were Cleridae (11 species), Histeridae (5 species), Dasytidae (one species) and Tenebrionidae (one species). This paper included both the host borer and host plant, besides, some observations on certain parasitic and predaceous insects.
