none Spodoptera litura (Fabr.) is a sporadic pest on vegetables but some times a serious pest on cole crops like cauliflower, cabbage, etc., in India. Field cage studies were conducted with two exotic parasites namely Telenomus remus Nixon (origin:New Guinea) and Apanteles marginiventris Cress. (origin:West Indies) against S. litura on cabbage. The egg parasite, T. remus gave up to 100 per cent parasitism whereas A. marginiventris produced below 5 per cent larval parasitism of S. litura under caged conditions. It is inferred that T. remus could be exploited on large scale for the control of S. litura on cabbage.
