Abstract
A survey was conducted in cotton belt of different areas of Punjab to know the present situation of the entomophagous insects through out the year. The following selective localities of Punjab were: Vehari, Multan, Melsi, Rahim Yar Khan, Bahawalpur and Sahiwal. Maximum average population in Vehari Geocoris was recorded followed by Orius and Spiders. In Multan Orius was recorded followed by Spiders, Geocoris, ants, predatory mite and Chrysopa sp. In Melsi Spiders was recorded followed by Orius, Geocoris, Ants, Predatory mite, Chrysopa sp. In Rahim Yar Khan Orius was recorded followed by Spiders, Geocoris, Ants, Predatory mite, Trichogramma sp. In Bahawalpur Geocoris was recorded followed by Orius, Ants, Spiders, Chrysopa sp., Predatory mite. In Sahiwal Geocoris was recorded followed by Spiders, Orius, Ants, Predatory mite, Trichogramma sp.
