Acizzia jamatonica (Kuwayama, 1908) is one of the most dangerous pests of Albizia julibrissin Durazz., 1772. A high pest population can lead to defoliation and death of the plant, and growing in forested areas makes it impossible to use chemical methods to protect the plant from Acizzia jamatonica (Kuwayama, 1908). The aim of this work was to study the species composition of predatory insects occurring in plantings of Albizia julibrissin Durazz., 1772 and to evaluate their regulatory activity ag
