Abstract

The islands, due to their discreet and isolated nature, offer excellent opportunities for understanding the origin, diversification and extinction of terrestrial biotas such as that of parasitoids. This study aimed to perform a bibliographic summary of the parasitoids collected on oceanic and river islands. For the elaboration of this study, researchers were carried out that contained published works reporting the main families, subfamilies and species. The mini review was prepared in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil in the years 2007 to 2021, using the Online Electronic Scientific Library (Scielo). Parasitoids are important natural regulators of insects and are prominent groups of natural enemies. They are also considered as bioindicators of biodiversity.
