Abstract

The objective of this work was to identify the species of beetles present in a macaw palm (Acrocomia aculeata (Jacq.) Lodd) native population as well as describe their activities, for further study of plant- insect interaction. Adult fruit weevils and brown beetles were collected manually in the fruits and the leaflets of adult plants of macaw palms. The insects were associated with the premature fruits abortion and with the reduction of the photosynthetic area of the plants.
