Abstract: A survey of the natural enemies of Aclerda takahashii (Kuwana, 1932) (Hemiptera- Aclerdidae) and Saccharicoccus sacchari (Cockerell, 1895) (Hemiptera- Pseudococcidae) was carried out in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. A total of ten associations were recorded, six parasitoid-host and four predator-prey, which three are new- parasitoids of the genus Eurytoma (Hymenoptera- Eurytomidae) and Hambletonia (Hymenoptera- Encyrtidae) associated with A. takahashii and S. sacchari, respectively; and the predator of the genus Diadiplosis (Diptera- Cecidomyiidae) with a S. sacchari. Anagyrus saccharicola Timberlake, 1932 and Mariola flava Noyes, 1980 (Hymenoptera- Encyrtidae) are reported for the first time in Brazil.
