Abstract

This is the first register of Pantophthalmus kerteszianus Enderlein e P. chuni Enderlein (Diptera: Pantophthalmidae) attacking parica trees [Schizolobium parahyba (Vell.) S. F. Blake var. amazonicum (Huber ex Ducke) Barneby] in Paragominas, Para State, Brazil. Whereas Para State has the largest area with parica plantation in Brazil, there is a risk of these insects become important pests of this crop.
