Abstract:
The biology of this family is extremely diversified, being known as ectoparasitoids or endoparasitoids of a wide range of hosts, from spiders, insect eggs, nematoids, mites, thrips and even other Hymenoptera, encompassing moreof 100 families in 10 orders of arthropods. They are important as biological control of certain pests. The aim is to describe the Family of the Eulophidae of economic importance in agriculture (Insecta: Hymenoptera) related to its biogeography, bioecology, habitat, geographic distribution, taxonomy, life cycle, phenology and taxonomic and conceptual aspects of the Family, Subfamilies and Species. To this end, a bibliographic survey of Eulophidae was carried out in the years 1984 to 2021. Only complete articles published in scientific journals and expanded abstracts presented at national and international scientific events, Doctoral Thesis and Master's Dissertation were considered. Data were also obtained from platforms such as: Academia.edu, Frontiers, Qeios, Pubmed, Biological Abstract, Publons, Dialnet, World, Wide Science, Springer, RefSeek, Microsoft Academic, Science and ERIC.
