In organic vineyard, L. botrana is biologically controlled by means of predators and parasitoids. For this purpose, field survey, monitoring and sampling were conducted in five different farms in Apulia region as in Tunisia in order to identify the predators and parasitoids of Lobesia botrana. The continuous sampling of nests and infested berries showed in Apulia farms the presence of predators that belong to the order of: Neuroptera, Dermeptera, Orthoptera and Arachnida. The parasitoids found belong to the Diptera order, family of Tachinidae and the order of Hymenoptera, family of Braconidae, subfamily of Aghatidinae.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Crop health, quality, protection</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Viticulture</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2005-10</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>IAMB Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari;Organic Farming</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Thesis</mods:genre></mods:mods>
