Three species of Tachinidae, namely, Blepharipa zebina (Walker), Exorista xanthaspis (Wiedemann) and Carcelia sp., were found parasitising the larvae of Amsacta albistriga (Walker) in Pavagada taluk, Tumkur district, Karnataka. In addition to these parasites, two predators, viz., Rhynocoris sp. (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) and Anthia sexguttata (F.) (Coleoptera: Carabidae) were also found predating on these caterpillars.
