Were made samplings at two sites from Irapuato using a sweep net, the specimens recollected were identified with dichotomous key. In total were identified five orders, 12 families, 18 genera and 22 species, most of them predators of red spiders and aphids. According to ecological treats for the species registered here, their potential as biological control of pests should be evaluated based on their feeding habits and increasing of habitat heterogeneity of the agroecosystem.
