Eriogyna pyretorum Westwood is a notorious defoliator of Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J. Presl that causes large economic and ecological losses in planted forests. To understand the importance of suppress population of E. pyretorum on natural parasitoids, a two-years investigation was conducted in the field. Four parasitoid species were identified from E. pyretorum: Gregopimpla himalayensis (Cameron, 1899), Theronia depressa (Gupta, 1962), Xanthopimpla konowi (Krieger, 1899) and Kriechbaumerella longiscutellaris Qian et He. G. himalayensis and T. depressa were first reported parasitoid wasps within E. pyretorum. Parasitism rates were 18.76% for K. longiscutellaris, 2.10% for G. himalayensis, 7.55% for T. depressa and 0.83% for X. konowi. Longevity, offspring and sex ratio were compared in four hymenopteran species, and K. longiscutellaris was the abundant parasitoid of E. pyretorum in Fujian province of China.
