In addition, they have been used extensively in various programs of Biological Control of insect pests in forests, vegetables and fruit trees throughout the world, achieving savings of millions of dollars per year in each country in which they have been successfully released. The study of the braconids in Mexico has not been adequate since only a little more than 700 species have been identified, estimating that there may be at least 3,000 species in our country. Neither have studied aspects of biology, genetics and behavior of the vast majority. The present book, "Braconidae (Hymenoptera) of Tamaulipas, Mexico", contributes to the advance in the knowledge of these beneficial insects in one of the states with greater diversity, due to its geographical situation in the northeast of the country that includes neartic and neotropical components . The state has the main types of vegetation that occur in Mexico, both forests and shrubs and grasslands, which favors the presence of phytophagous insects that are hosts of braconids. Los bracónidos son avispas parasitoides importantes en el control natural de las poblaciones de otros insectos, especialmente de lepidópteros, coleópteros y homópteros. Además, se han utilizado extensamente en diversos programas de Control Biológico de insectos plaga en bosques, hortalizas y frutales en todo el mundo, logrando el ahorro de millones de dólares anuales en cada país en el que se han liberado con éxito. El estudio de los bracónidos en México no ha sido el adecuado ya que se han identificado solamente un poco más de 700 especies, estimándose que pueden existir al menos 3,000 especies en nuestro país. Tampoco se han estudiado aspectos de la biología, genética y del comportamiento de la gran mayoría. El presente libro, “Braconidae (Hymenoptera) de Tamaulipas, México”, contribuye al avance en el conocimiento de estos insectos benéficos en uno de los estados con mayor diversidad, debido a su situación geográfica en el noreste del país que incluye componentes neárticos y neotropicales. El estado cuenta con los principales tipos de vegetación que ocurren en México, tanto de bosques como de matorrales y pastizales, con lo que favorece la presencia de los insectos fitófagos que son hospederos de los bracónidos.
