The result showed that found three species of parasitoid eggs roomates played the role to suppress the development of yellow rice stem borer namely Trichogramma japonicum Ashm., Telenomus rowani Gahan and Tetrastichus schoenobii Ferr with parasitation capacity of 66%. The highest capacity parasitation played by T. japonicum, followed T. rowani and T. schoenobii Ferr.]]>
