Abstract in Portuguese
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo desenvolver e testar o uso de radiotraçador e técnicas serológicas no estudo das relações alimentares entre a Diatraea saccharalis Fabr. 1794 (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) e artrópodes predadores em canaviais da região do Estado de São Paulo. O estudo com radiotraçador teve como base a marcação de ovos e lagartas da D. saccharalis com 32P que após liberados nos canaviais serviram como presas para os predadores ali existentes. Posteriormente, foram identificados pela presença de radioatividade. Os resultados indicaram um número variado de espécies envolvidas no controle da população de D. saccharalis. Determinou-se que os principais predadores de lagartas foram formigas e, de ovos, dermapteros. O estudo serológico teve como base a obtenção de antissoro específico para D. saccharalis e testes, utilizando-se a técnica de dupla difusão em gel de agar (OUCHTERLONY, 1958) com antígenos homólogos e heterólogos. Os resultados dos testes homólogos mostraram um máximo de três linhas de precipitação. Os resultados dos testes heterólogos, realizados a partir do antígeno obtido pela maceração do predador Phorastes femoratus De Geer, 1773 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), coletado no canavial e alimentado com uma única lagarta do 5º instar de D. saccharalis, mostraram reações altamente positivas e especificas, até 96h após a alimentação.

Abstract in English
The purpose of this work has been the development and testing of radiotracers use and serological techniques on the studies of the feeding relationships between Diatraea saccharalis Fabr. 1794 (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) and predator arthropods in sugarcane fields, of São Paulo State region. Radiotracer studies have been based on 32P marked eggs of D. saccharalis, wich after spreading in the sugarcane fields functioned as preys for existing predators. Furtherly, they were identified by its radioactivity. Results has shown a varied number of species associated with D. saccharalis, population control. It was verified that the main predators of larvae were ants and the eggs were eaten mostly by earwigs. Serological studies have been based on the obtention of specific antiserum for D. saccharalis , and on testing by the use of the agar double diffusion technique (OUCHTERLONY, 1958), employing homologous and heterologous antigens. Results of homologous testing have shown a maximum of three precipitation lines. Heterologous testing was done with antigen obtained from macerated predator Phorastes femoratus De Geer, 1773 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) wich had been previously collected in the sugarcane fields and fed on a single fifth instar larva of D. saccharalis, results, in this case, have shown highey positive and specific reactions, up to 96 hours after feeding.
