  Specimens of the eulophid Aceratoneuromyia indica (Silvestri) were recovered from fruit fly pupae collected in three Argentinian biogeographical regions. A total of 11 A. indica specimens were obtained from pupae of the tephritid Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) in Las Yungas and  Paranaense subtropical rain forest regions, and 10 A. indica specimen were recovered from pupae of the tephritid Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) in Chacoan subtropical dry forest region. Thus, A. indica was recovered approximately 38 years after its first release in Argentina.
