Abstract
With the objective to determine the natural regulators of Lantana camara L.,a study was carried out in the period december 2001-april 2003 in different ecosystems of the western and eastern region of Cuba. The sampling was carried out during the day, for which the different parts of the plant were reviewed. The collected arthropods were examined and identified in laboratory conditions. Eight species of bioregulators arthropods were registered, grouped into five orders, six families and seven genera. The species with the greatest distribution in the provinces evaluated were: O. camarae (100 %), L. columbicus (78 %), E. lantanae (78 %) and T. escrupulosa (67 %). The provinces with the highest number of bioregulators were Mayabeque, Artemisa and Las Tunas, mainly in grasslands. Varieties of L. camara with pink and orange flowers were identified, of which 63 % of the natural regulators interacted with both varieties. 50 % of arthropods feed on leaves and fruits, 38 % of flowers and 13 % of roots.
